1998 Map of Tombstone Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

The Sacramento River carves a deep valley through the southern Cascades in this late 20th-century survey, defining the primary transportation and settlement corridor for the region. Small clusters of habitation like Conant and Sims are situated along the riverbanks, where the terrain relents enough to accommodate the infrastructure of the Sims Flat area. High above the water, the landscape is dominated by the steep ascent of Sweetbrier Ridge and Mears Ridge, rising toward prominent summits such as Tombstone Mountain and Tater Hill. This environment is characterized by a dense network of watercourses, including Hazel Creek, Sweetbrier Creek, and the North Fork Salt Creek, which feed into the main river system. Within the Shasta-Trinity National Forests, the map records specific local landmarks like the Footbridge over the river and a dedicated Helispot for mountain operations.
