1954 Map of Yolla Bolly

About this map

Trinity National Forest and Mendocino National Forest converge in this mid-century survey of the California high country, where the landscape is defined by remote ranger stations and historic campsites. The mapping, which includes portions of Tehama, Trinity, and Mendocino Counties, details a rugged infrastructure of administrative sites like the N Yolla Bolly Guard Sta and Post Creek G S. The topography is marked by significant peaks such as Tedoc Mtn and the North Yolla Bolly Mts, providing a clear view of the drainage systems for the Trinity River and Beegum Creek. Local landmarks like Weston Ranch and the Tomhead Mine offer specific points of interest for genealogists and history buffs tracking early wilderness habitation. The extensive trail network, including the Humboldt Trail, reflects the area's history as a managed forest and primitive wilderness area prior to modern developments.
