2012 Map of Stirling City

About this map

Stirling City and the high ridge country between the W Br Feather River and Butte Cr define this 2012 topographic study of the northern Sierra Nevada foothills. The map documents a landscape where timber history and early settlement patterns remain visible through contemporary road networks like the Skyway. Genealogists and local historians can locate early burial sites at Inskip Pioneer Cem and Coutolenc Cem, which serve as quiet markers of the area's development. Small communities and historical staging points such as Lovelock, Toadtown, and Inskip are threaded together by a complex web of mountain roads including Humbug RD and Lovelock RD. The terrain is deeply incised by drainages like Last Chance Cr and Inskip Cr, with distinctive named heights including Cape Horn and Portuguese Point providing landmarks for those tracing the rural geography of Butte County.
