Burnt Ranch, California
Burnt Ranch (Chimariko: č’utamtače) a census-designated place (CDP) in Trinity County, California, United States. It has a school and a post office. Its ZIP Code is 95527, and it is in area code 530. Its elevation is 1,502 feet (458 m). Its population is 250 as of the 2020 census, down from 281 from the 2010 census.
In early times, the area was inhabited by people speaking a form of the Chimariko language, which was spoken along the Trinity River from the mouth of South Fork at Salyer as far upstream as Big Bar; their principal village was at present-day Burnt Ranch. Pre-contact, the Native American people of this area all spoke Chimariko as well as a dialect of the Hupa language. This is the Tsnungwe dialect of Hupa.
Burnt Ranch is so named because a party of Indian raiders burned down the majority of the town in 1863.
On 2 August 1858, J.W. Winslet's party of 16 men from Burnt Ranch were ambushed by the Whilkut in the Bald Hills along a trail to the Hupa villages, killing one man and wounding Winslet; the party retreated to Pardee's Ranch.
Burnt Ranch was destroyed in the spring of 1863 by an Indian raiding party.
Burnt Ranch became a temporary camp from May to November 1864, used by 1st Battalion California Volunteer Mountaineers while moving Indians to Fort Humboldt.
According to the United States Census Bureau, the CDP covers an area of 13.4 square miles (35 km2), of which 99.99% is land and 0.01% is water. The town is 15.7 miles southeast of Willow Creek on State Route 299.
