1982 Map of Denny

About this map

The New River corridor dominates this 1982 survey of the mountainous terrain where the Six Rivers National Forest meets the Trinity National Forest. The remote settlement of Denny serves as a central landmark, supported by the nearby Denny F.S. Station and the Denny Campground. This area has long been defined by its resource extraction and rugged access, as evidenced by the presence of the Index Mine and Hazel D Mine. Historical occupation is noted at Elk Camp (Site) and Onion Camp (Site), indicating locations that were already historical by the early 1980s. Further south, the map identifies small clusters and individual sites such as Hoboken and Dailey. The geography is deeply etched by watercourses like Horse Linto Creek and Bell Creek, creating a landscape that necessitated the early trail networks of TR 43 and TR 44.
