About this map

Modoc National Forest encompasses the majority of this territory, where the Pit River flows across the northern edge. The landscape is defined by its complex volcanic and mountainous relief, featuring numerous named buttes and canyons that suggest a history of seasonal grazing and timber management. A dense network of springs, such as Eades Spring, Quaking Aspen Spring, and Hays Springs, indicates the critical importance of water sources in this high-elevation terrain.

Transport and access are facilitated by a system of forest service spurs, including the Rattlesnake Butte Spur and Adin Summit Spur, which navigate around prominent landmarks like Iron Mtn and Black Butte. The presence of Stone Coal and Stone Coal Cr in the northern section points toward early local mineral interests or fuel sources. From the depths of Halls Canyon to the heights of Ryan Ridge, this map documents the intricate natural hydrology and topography of northeastern California.
