2011 Map of Fall Mountain

About this map

Fall Mountain Fire Lookout stands as a prominent sentinel over the high-elevation terrain of this Grant County quadrangle. The landscape is defined by its numerous springs, including Fall Mountain Spring, Overholt Spring, and Stark Spring, which feed a complex network of drainages like Hanscombe Creek and Ingle Creek. This 2011 survey captures the area's mix of recreational utility and traditional ranching life, seen in the proximity of the Starr Bowl Winter Sports Area to the Koehler Ranch. Significant mountain peaks such as CoalPit Mountain and Hanscombe Mountain divide the territory, while local travel is centered around County Hwy 49 and routes near Pleasant Hill. The density of named meadows and springs indicates a landscape historically valued for its water resources and seasonal activities, providing a clear record of the area's geographic features in the early 21st century.
