About this map

Shingletown Ridge dominates the northern landscape of this Shasta County region, where the terrain drops away into a complex network of canyons and watercourses. The 2018 survey reveals a territory defined by its water management history, featuring prominent irrigation infrastructure like Wildcat Ditch, Eagle Canyon Ditch, and Cross Country Ditch that follow the natural contours of the land. Small clusters of activity are found at Darrah Springs and Spring Gardens, while the presence of the Double Creek Airpark suggests the modern accessibility of this higher-elevation area.

The boundary between Shasta Co and Tehama Co cuts through the southern portion of the map near Eagle Canyon. Hydrological features are dense throughout, from the Macon Springs and Willow Springs to the flow of N Fork Battle Cr and S Fork Battle Cr. Named landmarks such as Black Butte and Jackass Butte provide distinct topographical anchors for local history researchers and land surveyors studying the rural development of northern California.
