1993 Map of Pothole Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1996

About this map

Pothole Valley defines this portion of the Modoc National Forest, where high-elevation drainage patterns and livestock management infrastructure characterize the landscape of the 1990s. The map reveals a network of water resources essential for this environment, including Pothole Spring, Quaking Aspen Spring, and the Timbered Ridge Reservoir. A notable human-made feature is the extensive Rock Wall following the contour of the valley near Boles Creek, likely a remnant of early ranching or boundary marking. This territory, punctuated by peaks like Blue Mountain and the long expanse of Bird Spring Ridge, shows very little permanent settlement outside of specialized sites such as a lonely Grave located near the center of the quadrangle. The presence of numerous Stock Ponds and the namesake Boles Meadow underscores the area's continued use for grazing and seasonal land management.
