About this map

The settlement of Coffee sits along the upper reaches of Coffee Cr in this high-elevation region of the Shasta National Forest. The landscape is defined by the sharp verticality of the Trinity Alps, where prominent summits like Ycatapom Peak and Battle Mtn dominate the skyline. The area's complex drainage system is evident through the convergence of Boulder Cr, Swift Cr, and Sugar Pine Cr, which carve deep canyons between ridges such as Sugar Pine Butte.

Glacial legacies are visible in the high-altitude basins, which hold numerous alpine waters including Boulder Lake, Tapie Lake, and Shimmy Lake. Pockets of level terrain provide distinct landmarks among the slopes, most notably at Mumford Meadow, Parker Meadow, and Deer Flat. This survey captures the remote character of Trinity County's wilderness, documenting the network of creeks and gulches—like Slide Gulch and McGuire Gulch—that define the local topography.
