About this map

The Eel River and Middle Fork Stony Creek anchor this mid-1960s survey of the high country along the Lake and Colusa County line. This area of the Mendocino National Forest is defined by its steep watercourses and high peaks, including the prominent Crockett Peak and the twin summits of Snow Mountain East and Snow Mountain West. The map captures a landscape dedicated to wilderness preservation and seasonal access, noting remote outposts like Waters Camp and the Milk Ranch.

A network of historical access routes is visible, including the Skeleton Glade Trail and various unnamed pack trails that connect the drainage basins. Cultural landmarks are sparse but significant for local history, ranging from the colorful Bloody Rock to established recreation sites like Lower Nye Campground and Thistle Glade Campground. This edition reflects 1967 field conditions with 1994 boundary revisions, documenting the established bounds of the Snow Mountain Wilderness.
