About this map

Humboldt National Forest encompasses much of this high-elevation landscape, where the Schell Creek Range and the Duck Creek Range converge. This 2018 survey documents a region defined by its critical water sources and rugged topography, centered on the Duck Creek Valley. The terrain is marked by numerous canyons, including Ostergard Canyon, Water Canyon, and Bone Yard Canyon, which drain the steep slopes toward the valley floor.

Evidence of resource extraction and seasonal land use appears at the Brennen Mine II and the open expanse of Gilford Meadows. To the south, high points like Success Summit and Cleve Creek Baldy tower over the network of forest roads and springs. Numerous named water sources, such as Wellington Springs, Peacock Spring, and French Lake, indicate the importance of water management in this arid high-country environment, supporting both the natural ecosystem and local transit through Duck Creek.
