Located in Mendocino County, this 389± acre timber tract is located in the heart of the Redwood Coastal Range, 13.9 miles west of Ukiah, along the South Fork Big River drainage, near the 2,743± acre Montgomery Woods State Reserve maintained by the California Department of Parks and Recreation. Purchases and donations by Save the Redwoods League have helped expand the Reserve, including a recent gift of lands to the Bureau of Land Management that adjoin the Dark Gulch auction property.
The property has access from Orr Springs Road, via a railroad car bridge across South Fork Big River, to an easement over BLM ownership to the northeast corner of the parcel. There is an estimated 4,178± MBF of net conifer volume, with 79% redwood and the balance primarily Douglas-fir. 74% of this volume, or 3,088± MBF, is 16 inch DBH or larger, that is not impacted by watercourse buffers or harvest reserves
MRC has not undertaken any harvest activities since its acquisition in 1998. There are primarily north-facing slopes, with moderate to steep topography, and a system of internal logging spur roads that will need some improvement prior to harvest activities.
There is a small amount of South Fork Big River frontage in the northeast section of the parcel, just east of Dark Gulch.
