About this map

The Trinity River cuts through the northeastern corner of this territory, where the terrain rises sharply into the Salmon Mountains. This mountainous landscape is dominated by the Six Rivers National Forest, a region defined by steep ridges and complex drainage systems. Named summits like Brannan Mtn and Brush Mtn tower over a network of waterways, including the winding Willow Cr and its tributaries such as E Fork Willow Cr and Bloody-Nose Cr.

Resource management and accessibility are reflected in the various forest routes and historical access ways like Old 3 Creeks Rd and Brushy Mountain Lookout Rd. Higher elevations such as Three Creeks Summit and Indian Field Ridge provide vantage points across the heavily timbered drainages. Local landmarks, including the Beebe Ranch Rd and Horse Mtn, highlight the intersection of early settlement trails and the protected wilderness of Humboldt County.
