2012 Map of Tar Bully

About this map

The A C Graves Ranch and the locality of Tar Bully serve as the primary human touchpoints in this rugged portion of Shasta County. The landscape is defined by an intricate drainage system including the N Fork Cottonwood Cr, Roaring River, and Wilson Cr, which carve through the terrain near Watson Gulch. The road network provides evidence of local history and topography, with names like Gold Diggers Rd, Old Canal Rd, and Platina Rd suggesting the area's ancestral ties to resource extraction and transit. Further south, winding routes such as Yolla Bolly Rd and Tolowa Rd navigate the elevation changes, while names like Trinity Alps Vista Rd and Leo's Lookout Rd point to the expansive views offered by this high-country terrain. This 2012 survey illustrates a sparsely populated region where early ranching and mining paths have evolved into a modern rural framework.
