About this map

The South Fork Trinity River flows northward through this 1997 revision, meeting the Trinity River near the border of Six Rivers National Forest and the Klamath National Forest. The landscape is dominated by steep elevations such as Hennessy Peak and Sugarloaf Mountain, with the Hennessy Ridge running north to south. Human impact is centered around forestry and recreation, evidenced by the Lower Trinity Ranger District and Hawkins Bar Recreation Site.

Beyond the rivers, the map documents remote outposts like Cedar Grove Ranch and a network of service roads including Hennessy Road and McDonald Road. The confluence of the Klamath River and Trinity River in the northeast corner highlights the area's importance for regional water drainage. For researchers, the presence of various survey blocks like PB 48 and TR 46 provides a granular look at how these forest lands were historically partitioned and managed.
