About this map

Modoc National Forest dominates this high-plateau landscape, where water features and historical rangelands define the local geography. The area around Rimrock Lake and Cummins Lake shows a distribution of landmarks linked to early resource management and navigation, such as Badger Well and Potter Pasture. To the north and east, several distinctive water bodies including Double Head Lake and Lone Pine Lake appear alongside industrial or defensive markers like Oth Radar and the Harvey Jones Pit.

The small settlement at Tionesta sits near the southwestern edge of the quadrangle, serving as a rare point of habitation in a region primarily defined by its forest service roads and open flats. Tracing routes like Rim Rock and Rimrock Spur reveals a network of access through Bob Young Flat, illustrating how the land was partitioned and utilized for forestry and grazing in the early twenty-first century.
