2001 Map of Duckwall Mtn

About this map

Duckwall Mountain and the high Duckwall Ridge dominate this section of the Stanislaus National Forest at the turn of the millennium. The landscape is defined by the deep drainage of the Tuolumne River to the south, where the Scenic and Wild River Trail follows the river's winding course. Evidence of human activity and resource extraction is scattered throughout these elevations, including the Duckwall Quarry and the remote Quinn Ranch. Local history is preserved in the names of numerous high-country meadows and water sources, such as Remmons Meadows, Willow Meadow Spring, and Walton Cabin Spring. The survey also documents the Mt Diablo Base Line and specific sites like Camp 43, reflecting the era's land management and forest service operations within Tuolumne County.
