2001 Map of Grasshopper Ridge

About this map

Georges Ranch and its nearby Cem sit along the winding South Fork Salmon River, surrounded by the steep ridges of the Klamath National Forest. This 2001 revision of earlier 1970s topography highlights a landscape defined by both resource extraction and conservation, featuring numerous Mines, Prospects, and Dredge Tailings along the waterways. The map details the primitive infrastructure of the area, including the Deacon Lee Trail and several former habitation markers like Timber Camp (Site) and Moccasin Ranch (Site). Drainage systems such as Gooey Gulch, Hazel Gulch, and Sixmile Creek carve through the high ground of Grasshopper Ridge and Lam-Up Ridge. To the south, the terrain transitions into the protected Trinity Alps Wilderness, where names like Haypress Meadow and Garden Gulch mark the high-elevation backcountry.
