1967 Map of Ball Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Mendocino National Forest defines this high-elevation landscape, where numerous family-named glades and cabins suggest a long history of seasonal grazing and forest management. This 1967 field-checked survey reveals a network of primitive tracks and trails connecting remote outposts such as Johnson Cabin, Stockton Cabin, and Russell Cabin. The drainage system is anchored by Thomes Creek, which snakes through deep canyons between prominent features like Ball Mountain and the South Ridge. Evidence of early forest service infrastructure and livestock handling is seen at the Lookout Tower on Ball Mountain and the Pollard Corral near Murphy Canyon. Scattered campsites like Big Stump Camp and Straight Arrow Camp point to the area's role for late-century recreation and wilderness access in Tehama County.
