2018 Map of Zenia

About this map

Zenia and Kettenpom anchor this high-elevation landscape in Trinity County, where the drainages of the N Fork Eel River and its various forks carve through the Six Rivers National Forest. The map captures a region defined by ranching and forest management, where naming conventions like Robbers Roost and Grizzly Mtn hint at the rugged frontier character of the territory. The wide, flat floor of the Kettenpom Valley contrasts with the steep ridges of Double Gate Ridge and Little Round Mtn. Local transportation depends on a network of named forest routes and ranch roads, including Ruth Zenia Rd and Burgess Ranch Rd. A notable modern addition to this rural landscape is the Heller High Water Airport, providing essential aerial access to this mountainous interior. Water sources are abundant throughout the forest, including Bollman Lake, Bear Wallow Spring, and Atkinson Spring.
