2015 Map of Chanchelulla Peak

About this map

Chanchelulla Peak dominates the high-elevation landscape of the Trinity National Forest at the intersection of Trinity and Shasta counties. The settlement of Knob serves as the primary human landmark in this wilderness, which is characterized by a dense network of watercourses and deep ravines. Extensive logging history is evident through features like the Sierra Pacific Logging Rd and numerous access routes such as Deer Lick Knob Rd. Drainage patterns are defined by the Middle Fork Cottonwood Cr and Browns Cr, which carve through the Trinity Mountains. Notable geographical points of interest include Deer Lick Springs and Philpot Lake, while the topography is further detailed by named drainages like Harrison Gulch and Midas Gulch, names that hint at the region's historical prospecting and timber interests.
