1967 Map of Ball Mountain

About this map

Mendocino National Forest defines the rugged high-country character of this 1960s survey, dominated by a series of parallel ridges including Middle Ridge, South Ridge, and Boswell Ridge. The landscape is a network of remote outposts and seasonal camps, with high points like the Ball Mountain Lookout Tower providing oversight of the drainage basins for Thomes Creek and Griffin Creek. This era of the forest is marked by a reliance on primitive infrastructure, evidenced by numerous jeep trails connecting isolated structures such as Johnson Cabin, Russell Cabin, and Stockton Cabin. Several glades, including Hensley Glade and Kingsley Glade, offer breaks in the timbered slopes, while various small-scale locations like Griffin Place and Pollard Corral hint at the historic grazing and forestry activities in the Northern Coast Ranges.
