2015 Map of Carrville

About this map

Shasta National Forest encompasses the high country of the Salmon Mountains, where deep drainage channels like Snowslide Gulch and Chinquapin Gulch carve into the steep terrain. The central corridor is defined by the Trinity River, which flows south into the expansive waters of Trinity Lake. This landscape, documented in 2015, shows a cluster of settlements including Coffee Creek and the historic site of Carrville situated along the river valley. The area's mining history is whispered through local names like Bonanza King and Powerhouse Gulch. Away from the main valley, numerous smaller tributaries such as Buckeye Cr and Scorpion Cr feed the watershed. Significant landforms like Rancheria Ridge and Plummer Hill dominate the southern portion of the quadrangle, offering a detailed perspective on the geography of northern Trinity County.
