1982 Map of Jim Jam Ridge

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Miller Ranch and a network of high-elevation campsites define this reach of the Trinity National Forest in the early 1980s. The landscape is dominated by the massive Jim Jam Ridge and the Salmon-Trinity Alps Primitive Area, where the New River and its many tributaries, including Bake Oven Creek and Whisky Creek, carve through the terrain. A footbridge crosses the East Fork New River near Fall Creek, while numerous jeep and foot trails connect seasonal outposts like Jakes Hunting Ground and Hailstone Camp. The naming conventions here, from Jim Jam Spring to Beartooth Mountain, reflect a legacy of local hunting and ranching culture that persisted even as federal oversight solidified the region's status as a wilderness primitive area.
