Bald Hills, California

Bald Hills is a former settlement in Klamath County, now located in Humboldt County, California.^[1] It was located 10 miles (16 km) southeast of Orick.^[1] In 1862 it was described as being between Trinidad and Orleans Bar, and within an easy day's travel from Fort Gaston.^[2]

A post office operated at Bald Hills from November 25, 1867 to January 23, 1878.^[1] ^[3] It may have been a post office earlier, according to a news item from Alta California, November 29, 1862. It said that the post office at Bald Hills was burned at the same time as the one at Albeeville.^[4]

The name of the place comes from the nearby Bald Hills.^[1]
