1966 Map of Brushy Mtn

About this map

Mendocino National Forest defines the character of this mid-1960s survey, capturing a rugged landscape dominated by high ridges and deep drainage basins in Northern California. The Eel River snakes through the southern portion of the sheet, providing a primary hydrological anchor for a network of tributaries including English Creek and Bear Creek. The terrain is marked by significant topographical landmarks such as Brushy Mtn and Bald Mountain, which overlook the expansive Eden Valley to the north. Historical land use is evidenced by several remote improvements, including Corrals and a Spring Camp located along the high ground of Box Spring Ridge. These features, connected by a network of Jeep Trails, suggest a period of active rangeland management and seasonal forestry work within the national forest boundary.
