About this map

Trinity National Forest encompasses this rugged California landscape, where the Hayfork Divide separates a complex network of drainages including Browns Creek and Reading Creek. The area is defined by its deep canyons and prominent peaks, such as Hoosimbim Mountain and Sugarloaf Peak, reflecting the difficult terrain of the Klamath Mountains.

Resource extraction is evidenced by the presence of the Reese Brothers Coal Mine, identified as an open pit mine near Blanchard Flat. This industrial landmark stands in contrast to the numerous named gulches and flats, such as Ferguson Flat and Squaw Flat Gulch, which often preserve the names of early settlers and miners. The map documents a watershed largely untouched by major development, where Hayfork Creek and its various forks remain the primary geographic features.
