2018 Map of Damnation Peak

About this map

The Trinity Mountains dominate this 2018 survey, which straddles the high divide between Trinity and Shasta Counties. This area of the Shasta National Forest is defined by its deep drainages and named ridges, including the prominent Damnation Peak and Blue Mtn. The landscape is etched with local history found in the naming of its remote terrain, from the descriptive Horsebone Ridge and Pismire Ridge to the steep The Incline in the northeastern corner. Settlement is sparse, with Oak Bottom situated near the southern boundary along Stacey Cr. This record of the modern wilderness also highlights important water sources like Grouse Spring and Quartz Spring, alongside numerous gulches that trace the complex hydrology of the N Fork Dog Cr and Clear Cr systems.
