2012 Map of Wrights Ridge

About this map

The Middle Fork Eel River winds through this high-elevation landscape in Trinity County, serving as the central artery for a region defined by its complex ridge systems and seasonal camps. This 2012 survey shows a network of remote outposts and infrastructure, such as the Flournoy Cabin and the Fern Point Bridge, which facilitate access to the surrounding wilderness. The terrain is a mixture of prominent peaks like Shell Mountain and distinctive depressions such as Hole in the Ground. A series of glades and flats, including Sunflower Glade and Lazyman Flat, suggest areas of level ground utilized for backcountry travel. The abundance of named camps, such as Lightning Camp, Saddle Camp, and Watertrough Camp, indicates a landscape primarily used for recreation, forestry, or livestock grazing, connected by rugged routes like the m1 and Forest Service roads near Georges Valley.
