1968 Map of Fouts Springs

About this map

Fouts Springs serves as a central landmark within this portion of the Mendocino National Forest, where the landscape is defined by the convergence of Stony Creek and its many tributaries. In the late 1960s, this area was a hub for backcountry recreation, evidenced by the numerous pack trails and specialized sites like Fouts Camp, Davis Flat, and Mill Valley Campground. The rugged topography transitions from the high peaks of Goat Mountain down into Letts Valley, where Upper Letts Lake is located. The presence of isolated structures such as Sanborn Cabin and Red Rock Cabin suggests a history of remote mountain living or forestry management. Interesting geological and local nomenclature appears throughout the terrain, including Steel Trap Rock, Deafy Glade, and Potato Hill. A small Landing Strip near the springs highlights the era's reliance on small aircraft for access to these mountain reaches.
