About this map

Trinity Center serves as the focal point of this northern California landscape, situated along the northwestern arm of the expansive Trinity Lake. The settlement is supported by local infrastructure including the Trinity Center Airport and a Post Office, while the surrounding terrain is defined by its deep gulches and prominent peaks. High points like Bowerman Peak and Billys Peak overlook a complex network of waterways, where Swift Creek and Foster Creek drain toward the reservoir.

Evidence of seasonal activity and land use is clear through the distribution of recreation sites such as Preacher Meadow Campground and Jackass Spring Campground. Notable private holdings and smaller locales like Norwegian Ranch and Wyntoon are reached via specialized routes such as Rancheria Road and N Fork Cutoff. The map detail follows the intricate shoreline of the lake, tracing numerous inlets named for historical figures and geographical markers, including Freethy Gulch and Rackerby Gulch.
