The 5,660 acre district is located within the Bald Hills of the Redwood National Park, Humboldt County, California and is set within the prairies and oak woodlands of the Redwood Creek watershed. The District is protected by its inclusion within the Park, is nearly devoid of intrusions after the period of significance, and has a high degree of integrity. Contributing resources of the District include its eight prairies and within the prairies are features that contribute to the significance of the District, but not listed separately. Many small-scale features exist as remnants, including remnants of orchards, fencing, water troughs, ponds, pieces of machinery, boards from collapsed corral systems, etc. Key buildings and structures are vernacular in their style, and continue to be maintained by park staff. These buildings and structures are listed separately as contributing resources and include: the Bald Hills Road, ranch roads built before 1959, the Elk Camp Sheep Shed, Lane House and Garage, Dolason Sheep Shed, Home Place Barn, Bunkhouse, Dooleyville Line Cabin, Long Ridge Sheep Shed, and the Coyote Sheep Shed and Line Cabin.
