2011 Map of Sponseller Mountain

About this map

Los Burros serves as a primary point of interest in this high-elevation landscape, where the Los Burros Ranger Office and Los Burros Campground mark the intersection of administrative management and recreational use. The terrain is defined by a series of prominent peaks and volcanic knolls, including Sponseller Mountain, Ziegler Mountain, and McCormick Knoll. Water resources are scattered across the high country in the form of numerous tanks and springs, such as Sponseller Lake, Hidden Lake, and Mud Spring, which indicate the necessity of water management for local grazing or forestry. A network of primitive roads, including the Turkey Mtn Fire Rd and Dipping Vat Spring Fire Rd, connects these remote features, tracing the paths used by fire crews and land managers through the high timber and brushlands.
