2012 Map of Posey

About this map

Posey and Idlewild serve as the primary social and residential hubs in this high-altitude landscape where the headwaters of Poso Creek and the White River begin their descent. The settlement pattern reveals a region largely defined by seasonal recreation and ranching, evidenced by the White River Summer Home Tract and specialized communities like Sugarloaf Village and Poso Park. Historically significant landholdings, such as Jack Ranch, Vincent Ranch, and the Carver and Bowen Ranch, are situated among the peaks, illustrating the area's legacy of mountain grazing. To the east, residential clusters at Pleasant View and Panorama Heights take advantage of the steep topography near the Sierra Christian Camp. The terrain is marked by distinctive features such as Grist Mill Peak and Capinero Saddle, reflecting a workforce and transport history tied to the forest.
