About this map

Tennant stands as a focal point in this high-altitude landscape of northern California, situated near the boundary where the Klamath National Forest meets the Shasta National Forest. The map documents a rugged volcanic terrain dominated by prominent peaks and ridges, including Haight Mtn and Stephens Butte. High-elevation water sources such as Blue Spring, Cold Spring, and Bishop Spring are vital features in this dry, forested environment.

A network of forestry and access roads like Haight Mtn Loop and Tennant Rd crisscross the area, reflecting the region's history of timber management and forest recreation. An old Railroad Grade south of the main settlement points to the era of industrial logging that once defined the local economy. The terrain transitions from the open spaces of Pollock Flat in the north to the steeper ascents of Picadilly Ridge, providing a clear view of the complex topography near the Siskiyou-Modoc county line.
