1967 Map of Mendocino Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Mendocino Pass serves as a critical point of crossing in this high-elevation landscape where Mendocino, Tehama, and Glenn counties converge. Surveyed in the late 1960s, the map reveals a network of remote outposts and family-named locations such as Hardy Place, Bredehoft Place, and Barras Ranch. The prominent Anthony Peak rises above the Mendocino National Forest, topped by a Lookout Tower that provided a vital vantage point for fire surveillance. The terrain is defined by steep ridges like Timber Ridge and Cattle Ridge, while water sources like Seven Troughs Spring and Rock Spring suggest the logistical necessities of high-country ranching and forest management. This document captures the transition from traditional grazing and homesteading to modern forestry infrastructure, including the Low Gap Station and the established campgrounds at Government Flat.
