2021 Map of Bailey Ridge

About this map

Montgomery park and the surrounding timberlands of Mendocino County define this upland landscape, where the headwaters of the S Fork Big River and the Little N Fork Navarro River drain divergent mountain slopes. The geography is marked by a complex network of ridges, including Bailey Ridge and Alaska Ridge, which are traversed by essential logging and transport corridors such as the Masonite Industrial Rd. The intersection of industrial utility and homesteading history is evident in named landmarks like Scott Homestead Rd and geographic waypoints like Wohlys Pass and Low Gap. This area serves as a critical watershed, with numerous named streams such as Daugherty Cr and Shingle Mill Cr carving through the terrain. The presence of Castle Garden and Montgomery Flat suggests early points of local interest or seasonal settlement within these dense California woodlands.
