1955 Map of Cecilville

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Salmon River and its multiple forks carve through the high elevations of the Salmon Mountains and Trinity Alps in this mid-century survey. Gold mining legacy is evident across the terrain, with claims like the King Solomon Mine, Starvout Mine, and White Bear Mine dotting the drainages. The settlement of Cecilville serves as a central point along the river, while other sites like Summerville and Yoakumville reflect the shifting fortunes of these remote mountain outposts. The map reveals a network of high-country camps such as Five Dollar Camp and McDowell Camp, alongside essential fire lookouts at Cecil Point Lookout. Cattle ranching and early forest management are documented through labels for Blue Ridge Ranch, Schoolhouse Flat, and the Crawford Cr Guard Sta, capturing a landscape where resource extraction and backcountry habitation defined the local economy.
