About this map

Mendocino National Forest defines the rugged topography of this North Coast Range landscape, where the tri-county boundary of Trinity, Mendocino, and Tehama meets. The northern reaches are preserved within the Yolla Bolly Middle Eel Wilderness, characterized by high-elevation landforms like Hammerhorn Ridge and the prominent Little Buck Rock. Human presence is marked by isolated mountain outposts and seasonal gathering spots such as Pony Meadows and Slanes Flat, accessible via the historic French Trail and specialized forest routes. Water sources are critical in this high-country terrain, evidenced by several glade springs, including Tantrum Glade Spring and Minnie Glade Spring, which feed into steep drainage systems like Thomes Creek and McClure Creek. This survey captures the wilderness character of the area before modern fire regimes and management shifts altered the dense forest cover surrounding Hammerhorn Lake and Howard Lake.
