About this map

Trinity National Forest encompasses this high-elevation landscape in Trinity County, where a complex network of ridgelines and deep gulches defines the territory. The northeastern corner is dominated by Bake Oven Ridge and Semore Gulch, while the southern reaches are anchored by China Peak and Green Mtn. This terrain is primarily accessible via foot and pack trails, such as the Jim Jam Trl, Devils Canyon Trl, and Green Mountain Trl, which wind through the forest to reach remote water sources like Jim Jam Spring.

The presence of the Trinity Wild and Scenic River corridor highlights the protected status of the E Fork New River and its various tributaries including Garaway Cr and Fall Cr. In the west, Denny Road provides one of the few vehicular access points near Mills Hill, marking a transition from the deeper wilderness. For researchers and geographers, the map documents the persistent nomenclature of the Salmon Mountains and the intricate drainage patterns that feed into the larger Trinity River system.
