About this map

Tan Oak Park and the high ridges of northern Mendocino County are defined by a complex network of canyons and peaks within the Eel River watershed. The landscape is dominated by the course of Rattlesnake Cr, which winds past Tan Oak Park and under the high point of Rattlesnake Summit. Significant local relief is marked by landmarks such as Cow Mtn, Bald Mtn, and Chimney Rock.

A network of mountain roads, including Bell Springs Rd and Spy Rock Rd, provides access to this secluded terrain, connecting small clearings like Burns Flat. The drainage pattern is intricate, with Tenmile Cr, Grapevine Cr, and Twin Rocks Cr carving deep into the coastal range. This 2021 survey illustrates a modern look at a region where traditional land use and remote settlements persist among the steep gulches and ridges of the California interior.
