1954 Map of Shoeinhorse Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Wyntoon and the McCloud River Club anchor this mid-century survey of the McCloud River canyon within the Shasta National Forest. The landscape is defined by the river’s descent through a series of falls, including Upper Falls, Middle Falls, and Lower Falls, and its confluence with numerous cold mountain streams. Evidence of timber harvesting and remote residence is scattered throughout the territory, from the Logging Camp near Big Springs to the Willow Creek Ranch. Local transit is represented by a network of Jeep Trails and the Water Trough Trail, which served the region's camps and lookout points. Landmarks such as Shoeinhorse Mtn, Yellowjacket Mtn, and Bald Mtn dominate the topography, while smaller settlements like Rinckel and the appropriately named Ghost Camp hint at the seasonal and industrial character of this mountain environment during the 1950s.
