About this map

Clair Engle Lake dominates the northwestern corner of this territory, where the reservoir waters reach into the Papoose Arm and meet the Papoose Creek drainage. This 1982 survey illustrates a landscape primarily defined by the intersection of the Shasta National Forest and Trinity National Forest, with the Trinity and Shasta county line cutting through the high peaks of the Trinity Mountains.

Resource extraction and forest management are evident through the presence of the Five Pines Mine and the Trinity Mountain Forest Service Station. Recreation is centered around the lake and high ridges, noted by landmarks like Captain Point Campground, Keno Camp, and the uniquely named Palace of the Oaks. The network of Jeep Trails and unnamed roads across Fairview Ridge and Lookout Ridge highlights the era's access routes through this steep timberland.
