About this map

Panther Spring and a series of high-altitude water sources like Knass Spring and Two-Barrel Spring define this remote section of Tehama County. The landscape is marked by isolated homesteads and named camps, including Peligreen Place, Avery Place, and Pape Place, which are connected by forest routes such as Ponderosa Way and Bucks Flat Rd. These sites reflect the area's history of cattle ranching and early mountain passage, further evidenced by the Wild Horse Corral and the isolated Payne Spring Cabin near the western edge.

Stream networks like Mill Cr and Indian Cr carve deep through the terrain, creating significant landmarks like Bear Canyon and Stone Corral Hollow. Notable crossings such as Cedar Crossing and Blunkall Crossing indicate established routes through the drainage systems of N Fork Little Mill Cr and Antelope Cr. The topography shifts from the heights of Table Mountain and Round Mountain down into steep recesses like Deadman Gulch and Steep Hollow.
