2012 Map of Rail Canyon

About this map

Rail Canyon and the surrounding drainage basins of the inner Coast Range define this 2012 survey. The landscape is dominated by a complex network of seasonal and perennial waterways, including the winding S Fork Willow Cr and Logan Cr, which carve through the high-elevation terrain. Prominent landmarks such as High Peak and Seminary Ridge provide a sense of the area's topographical relief. Local infrastructure is minimal, centered on a few unpaved county routes like Co RD 303 and Rail Canyon Rd, which navigate the steep valleys. Water resources are captured at named points such as Glen Spring and Lake Canyon, serving as vital hubs in an otherwise dry and sparsely developed territory. This map documents a remote part of Glenn County where the natural hydrology remains the primary feature of the landscape.
