1951 Map of Chanchelulla Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Trinity National Forest dominates this mid-century landscape where the borders of Trinity, Shasta, and Tehama counties meet. The high point of Chanchelulla Pk watches over a terrain defined by narrow gulches and family-named landholdings. A legacy of early extraction and resource management is evident at the Midas Mine and the Harrison Gulch Ranger Sta, while social centers appear at locations like Deer Lick Springs and a local Cem. The settlement pattern is characterized by scattered operations such as Williams Ranch, Griswold Ranch, and Bland Ranch, which suggest a remote ranching economy dependent on the drainages of Beegum Creek and Cottonwood Creek. This map captures the area as it was surveyed in 1951, documenting the complex network of trails and unimproved roads connecting these high-country outposts before modern infrastructure altered the reach of the Trinity wilderness.
