About this map

Friend Place and Petes Pasture highlight the isolated human footprint in this mountainous region of Trinity County. The landscape is defined by the steep drainage systems of Naufus Cr and Plummer Cr, which feed into the S Fork Trinity River at the southern edge of the survey. Higher elevations are marked by the Bald Peaks of Plummer and Irish Mountain, while localized clearings like Big Flat of Naufus and Grouse Prairie provide rare breaks in the timbered slopes.

Outdoor heritage is evident through seasonal sites such as Naufus Spike Camp and the Fourth of July Camp, alongside the established Forest Glen Campground. Unique terrain features like the Devils Kitchen and Kingfisher Point suggest a geography shaped by distinct geological formations and local lore. This era shows a network of Forest Service routes, including Forest Rte 2N11, providing access to high-altitude meadows such as Bear Wallow Meadow.
