About this map

Sids Place and Sportshaven anchor the human presence in this rugged portion of Trinity County, where the terrain is defined by the significant divide between the Mad River and the S Fork Trinity River. The landscape is dotted with historic homesteads and agricultural holdings such as McClellan Place, Miller Place, and Feldmiller Ranch, which are linked by a complex network of forest routes and mountain roads.

The presence of Klondike Mine Rd suggests a history of resource extraction, while the Mad River Campground points to the area's role in wilderness recreation. High elevation points like Bear Wallow Mountain and Norse Butte overlook a series of natural springs, including Lemonade Spring, Miller Spring, and Sheep Camp Spring, which were likely critical water sources for the dispersed ranches and settlements of the region.
