About this map

The mineral resources of the eastern Mendocino National Forest define this 1960s landscape, where operations like the Chrome Mine, Black Diamond Mine, and Gray Eagle Mine are mapped along the slopes of Red Mtn. This region of Glenn County reflects a rugged ranching and mining economy, evidenced by the presence of the Gillaspy Ranch and Rowcroft Ranch. Significant cultural and historical sites are scattered throughout the drainage basins, including the Grindstone Rancheria and the secluded Grindstone Cem near the banks of Grindstone Creek.
