About this map

Trinity River canyons and the steep ridgelines of the Trinity National Forest dominate this 1982 survey of the Trinity Alps region. The small settlement of Big Bar sits on a bend in the river, accompanied by a Trailer Park and a local Cem, marking a rare pocket of habitation amidst the vertical terrain. High-elevation landmarks like Pattison Peak, Monument Peak, and Eagle Rock define the horizon, while the drainage network includes Hayfork Creek and Hayshed Creek. The map documents the resource-based character of the era, from a small Prospect to the Multiple Wood Pole Trans Line cutting through the forest. Low-lying areas like Corral Bottom and Haypress Meadow offer a glimpse into the localized geography used by packers and foresters before the expansion of more modern infrastructure.
