2015 Map of Whitmore

About this map

Whitmore and Fern anchor this northern California landscape, where the foothills of the Cascades meet a complex network of creeks and ridges. The terrain is defined by dramatic elevation changes, notably at Bullskin Ridge and Gold Hill, while numerous drainages such as Old Cow Creek and Clover Creek carve through the land. The map reveals a rural community structure established around timber and ranching, evidenced by features like Coal Gulch and Little Valley. Local family history is preserved at the Fern Cemetery and Whitmore Cemetery, while a dense web of local roads, including Pollock Ranch Road and Amidon Ranch Road, traces the historic land use patterns of Shasta County. The layout of the townships, including t33n r1w and t32n r1e, provides the underlying framework for these scattered settlements and remote homesteads.
