1954 Map of Yolla Bolly

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Weston Ranch and a network of remote outposts anchor this mid-century survey of the California wilderness. The landscape is defined by the high elevations of the North Yolla Bolly Mts and South Yolla Bolly Mts, where the borders of Tehama, Trinity, and Mendocino counties converge. This era shows a forest managed through a system of backcountry camps and guard stations, including the Saddle Camp Guard Sta and N Yolla Bolly Guard Sta, connected by primitive routes like the Humboldt Trail. Industrial history is represented by the Tomhead Mine near Tomhead Mtn, while numerous family-named landmarks and seasonal camps such as Barker Camp and Lazyman Camp suggest a long history of grazing and hunting. The drainage patterns of the Cold Fork and Elkhorn Creek illustrate the complex watershed of the region before modern development altered these high-country access points.
