1998 Map of Tomhead Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 2003

About this map

Tomhead Mtn Lookout stands as the primary vantage point over the high ridgelines of Western Tehama County in this late-twentieth-century survey. The landscape is defined by the steep drainage systems of Middle Fork Cottonwood Creek and the Cold Fork, where numerous small springs like Miners Cabin Spring and Buck Camp Spring provide water in the high country. Resource extraction and backcountry access are evident through the presence of the Tomhead Mine and a designated Landing Strip near the Pettyjohn Trail. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the Yolla Bolly Middle Eel Wilderness, illustrating the transition from managed forest lands to protected primitive areas. Historic transport routes are preserved through labels for the Humboldt Trail, reflecting the long history of movement across Brushy Ridge and Middle Ridge before modern road networks.
