About this map

Trinity National Forest encompasses the vast majority of this landscape, where high ridgelines and deep gulches define the topography of Northern California. Halfway Ridge serves as a central spine, flanked by drainage systems including Butter Cr and Hayfork Cr. Scattered clearings such as Butter Creek Meadows, Grassy Flat, and Indian Valley suggest pockets of more level terrain within the steep ascent to peaks like Grassy Mtn and Friend Mtn.

A network of Forest Service routes, such as Hyampom Rd and Indian Valley Rd, provides access to these elevations. Notable water sources are frequently named, often indicating historical livestock or camping utility, including Sheep Camp Springs, Sardine Spring, and Fir Root Spring. The presence of Corral Gulch and Cow Gulch further reflects the area's legacy of mountain ranching and land use within the national forest system.
