1948 Map of Duckwall Mtn

About this map

The Clavey River and Tuolumne River carve through the high terrain of the Stanislaus National Forest in this mid-century survey of the California Sierra. The landscape is defined by its deep canyons and prominent ridges, including the namesake Duckwall Mtn and the sharp profile of Butcher Knife Ridge. Remote outposts and historic property lines such as Quinn Ranch and Femmons are scattered across the quadrangle, connected by a network of trails and an Old Railroad Grade that traces the upper elevations near Niagara Creek.
