About this map

Whittington Place (Site) and the high-elevation flats of eastern Shasta County dominate this mid-1980s landscape, characterized by managed timberlands and wilderness boundaries. The area serves as a significant hydrological headwater, where Burney Creek and several forks of Cow Creek originate among the volcanic peaks. The transition between the Lassen National Forest and the Latour Demonstration State Forest is marked by functional landmarks such as The Corduroy and various silvicultural sites like Upper Plantation.
