2018 Map of Log Spring

About this map

Mendocino National Forest defines the character of this 2018 survey, which straddles the high-elevation boundary between Tehama and Glenn Counties. The terrain is a complex network of ridges and glades, where water sources like Log Spring and Blackjack Spring provided critical infrastructure for early forest management and grazing. The settlement at Sunnyside represents the primary human foothold in an area otherwise dominated by geographical features such as Kenny Ridge and Lantz Ridge. Distinctive local nomenclature is evident in names like Hokey Pokey Ridge and Mule Spike, reflecting the historical usage of pack animals and specialized labor in these mountains. The presence of Powell Cabin and various forest roads, including Recer Ridge and the Paskenta-Mendocino Pass, suggests a landscape organized around seasonal movement and forestry operations.
