1948 Map of Duckwall Mtn

About this map

The Clavey River carves a deep canyon through the heart of the Stanislaus National Forest in this late-1940s topographic study. The landscape is defined by the high-elevation terrain of Duckwall Mtn, where a prominent Lookout station surveyed the surrounding wilderness. Evidence of the region's timber heritage is preserved in the winding route of the Lumber R.R. as it snakes across the northern ridges. Scattered settlements and seasonal outposts like Quinn Ranch, Camp 45, and Femmons reveal the human presence in this high-country environment. The southern boundary is marked by the Mt Diablo Base Line and the rushing waters of the Tuolumne River, while numerous springs and meadows, such as Thompson Meadow and Indian Spr, provide critical water sources throughout the steep drainage basins of the Duckwall Ridge.
