This THP is about 12 miles NE of Trinidad, CA and Highway 101, and just east of Redwood National Park at an elevation of 1,400 to 2,400 feet. Green Diamond Resource Company is planning a mostly clearcut feller buncher, shovel and cable logging operation on steep and unstable slopes in redwood and Douglas fir forests. The THP area flows into the Lower Klamath River watershed which is listed as an impaired watershed for sediment, temperature, dissolved oxygen and nutrients. There is a cut bank failure on a road near unit C, and a fill slope failure at road point 13. 16 road drainage sites are planned for work including rocking, dip construction, ditch cleaning, culvert repair/replacement and restoration of washed out crossings. Golden eagles have been reported within .5 miles of the THP Area, and there are spotted owl nesting territories within .25 miles of units B, D, and E, and within .5 miles of units A and C.
