1948 Map of Duckwall Mtn

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Duckwall Ridge and Butcher Knife Ridge dominate this section of the Stanislaus National Forest as mapped in the late 1940s. The landscape is defined by the steep drainage of the Clavey River, which flows south toward its confluence with the Tuolumne River. Evidence of the region's timber history is preserved through the winding route of the Lumber RR in the northeast and isolated outposts like Camp 45. High-elevation observation is centered at the Thompson Peak Lookout and the primary Lookout at Duckwall Mtn. Local family history and land use are etched into the terrain at the Quinn Ranch and Femmons, while numerous water sources such as Walton Cabin Spr and Rackerby Jack Spr suggest the essential infrastructure required for early ranching and forestry in this part of Tuolumne County.
