2012 Map of Fish Lake

About this map

The Klamath River flows through the southeastern corner of this mountainous Humboldt County territory, a landscape defined by its high-altitude water bodies and network of forest trails. Isolated homesteads and named locations like the Garnit Ranch, Wright Place, and Red Cap Glade are connected by rugged routes such as the Bluff Creek Trl and the Blue Creek-Mountain Trl. This region, surveyed in the early 21st century, exhibits a complex drainage system where Bluff Cr and Slate Cr navigate the steep elevations between Onion Mountain and Bee Mountain. Numerous small lakes, including Fish Lake, Bee Lake, and Mosquito Lake, dot the ridges, serving as vital landmarks for those traversing the high ground between Rock Prairie and the Slate Creek Butte. The presence of Cedar Camp near the northern boundary reflects the area's history of seasonal habitation and remote forestry management.
