1996 Map of Kneecap Ridge

About this map

Mendocino National Forest defines the rugged character of this California landscape, where complex ridge systems and creek drainages create a remote terrain within Lake and Glenn counties. High-elevation landmarks such as Kneecap Ridge and Brushy Camp Ridge dominate the topography, interspersed with notable flatlands like Gravelly Flat. The map reveals the specific footprints of human history through the presence of the Provence Cabin (Site) and a lone Grave Site located near Bear Wallow. These isolated features, alongside drainage networks like the Middle Fork Stony Creek and Corbin Creek, illustrate the historical difficulty of accessing these high-country reaches. The Upper Lake Grindstone Rd serves as the primary artery through this forested region, connecting various springs and remote peaks like Little Round Mtn and High Point.
