About this map

Fouts Springs serves as a central landmark for this mountainous Mendocino National Forest region, where natural mineral springs and rugged topography define the land use. The presence of numerous designated campsites such as Mill Valley Campground and Old Mill Campground indicates a landscape heavily utilized for outdoor recreation and forest management. Small-scale human presence is marked by structures like the Sanborn Cabin and Red Rock Cabin, which are isolated within a complex system of fire roads and forest routes.

Drainage patterns are dictated by high points like Goat Mountain and Potato Hill, with waters flowing into the S Fork Stony Cr and Little Stony Cr. The map reveals a network of glades—Rattlesnake Glade, Welton Glade, and Deafy Glade—interspersed with steep ridges like Trough Spring Ridge. This 2012 survey illustrates the modern intersection of wilderness preservation and accessible public lands through features like the Trout Creek Trailhead Parking and various Forest Service routes.
