About this map

Mendocino National Forest defines this high-elevation landscape in Glenn County, where the 2018 terrain is marked by sharp ridges and significant glades. The area is anchored by Plaskett Meadows, a notable high-country landmark, while the small names of Copper City and Lone Star recall the remote outposts of the northern Coast Range. The transportation network is built upon the spine of Forest Highway Seven and specialized routes like Black Butte Scenic Boundary Road, serving both recreation and resource management.

Water sources such as Frolic Spring and Ice Spring dot the steep slopes between Kill Dry Ridge and Shepherd Ridge. The inclusion of Black Butte Homes near the prominent Black Butte summit highlights the pockets of human settlement within this otherwise wild, forested expanse. Researchers will find a detailed view of the drainage patterns for Mill Cr and Snow Basin Cr, illustrating how the land falls away from the central divides.
