2018 Map of Hayfork Bally

About this map

Big Bar sits at the northern edge of this terrain, where the Trinity River cuts through the steep slopes of the Salmon Mountains. This mountainous region within the Trinity National Forest is defined by a series of prominent high points and drainage systems, including the namesake peak of Hayfork Bally and the sweeping Hayfork Divide. The landscape is etched with numerous creeks and springs, such as Love Letter Spring and Squaw Camp Spring, which historically supported the hydraulic needs of early mining and transit through these remote corridors. Access across the ridges is dictated by a network of forest routes, including Manzanita Ridge Rd and Big Creek Rd, tracing the same steep grades used for generations to traverse between the river and the inland valleys.
