2018 Map of Orrs Springs

About this map

Orrs Springs serves as the focal point for this rugged section of the California Coast Ranges, where the headwaters of several major drainage systems diverge. The complex topography is defined by prominent elevations including Eagle Rock, Pine Ridge, and Alaska Ridge, which separate the watersheds of the S Fork Big River to the north and the S Br N Fork Navarro River to the south. The area’s industrial history is etched into the landscape via the Masonite Industrial Rd and TE Industrial Rd, routes that speak to the timber and resource extraction heritage of Mendocino County. Family ranching and local settlement patterns are visible through named access ways like Running Springs Ranch Rd and Main Ranch Rd, while numerous creeks such as Ackerman Cr and Daugherty Cr carve through the steep terrain.
