About this map

The Trinity River winds through the heart of this landscape, anchoring the settlement of Lewiston and its local Po. The geography is defined by a dense network of gulches and creeks, including Sawmill Gulch and Snipe Gulch, reflecting a history of small-scale mining and timber activity. North of the town center, Lewiston Lake sits within the Trinity National Forest, bordered by the evocative Starvation Flat.

Upland reaches are dominated by the Trinity Mountains, with prominent summits like Tylers Peak and Mikes Peak rising above the valley floor. Historical transit routes such as the Lewiston Turnpike Rd and Deadwood Rd trace the old paths between mountain camps and river flats. Notable local place names like Gold Bar and Dark Gulch point to the area's prospecting heritage, while Vanicia Mine Rd leads into the high country near the Trinity and Shasta County border.
