1952 Map of Anthony Peak

About this map

Mendocino Pass serves as a primary high-altitude crossing in this mid-century survey of the northern coastal range interior, where the boundaries of Mendocino, Tehama, Glenn, and Trinity counties converge. The landscape is defined by a dense network of high ridges, including Hammerhorn Ridge and Smokehouse Ridge, separated by deep drainage basins like those of Grindstone Creek and the Black Butte River. Significant human presence is marked by a series of isolated mountain stations and seasonal camps, such as the Log Spring Guard Sta and the Tantrum Glade Guard Station. Genealogists and local researchers will find value in the specific identification of residential and historical footprints, including the Griffin Place, Peterson Place, and several recorded former dwellings like the Henderson Cabin (Site) and Lantz Cabin (Site), which reflect the remote ranching and forest management history of the era.
