1982 Map of Blue Creek Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Six Rivers National Forest dominates this topographic study, revealing a landscape defined by the steep drainage basins of the Blue Creek and Pecwan Creek systems. At the center of the sheet, Blue Creek Mtn and Lookout Point serve as primary landmarks along the high ridges. This early 1980s data illustrates the complex topography of the Humboldt and Del Norte county line, which runs through the drainage of Nickowitz Creek and past the summit of Nickowitz Peak. Cultural imprints are limited to remote clearings like Bear Pen Flat and Stevens Prairie, alongside a network of unpaved roads and 4wd tracks that provided access for timber management and fire suppression. Notable water features include the Crescent City Fork and the East Fork Blue Creek, which carve deep V-shaped valleys through the timbered slopes. The presence of a Borrow Pit and several prospects suggests the era's ongoing resource assessment in this isolated portion of the Klamath Mountains.
