1998 Map of Cecil Lake

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

The Trinity Alps dominate this high-elevation landscape where the Salmon-Trinity Alps Wilderness and several national forests converge. The terrain is marked by remote backcountry shelters and historic pack-trail points such as Fosters Cabin, Jorstad Cabin, and Morrison Cabin. Water features define the drainage patterns, including Cecil Lake below Cecil Point and the headwaters of the North Fork Trinity River. The map captures a moment in the late 1990s when remote recreation sites like China Gardens Campsite and Pegleg Campsite supported travelers through the high passes. Land management is complex here, with the Wilderness Boundary weaving through steep ridges like Limestone Ridge, illustrating the transition from managed timberlands in the Shasta-Trinity National Forests to protected wilderness.
