1969 Map of Blocksburg

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Blocksburg serves as the primary hub of this 1960s landscape, situated along the Alderpoint Road as it winds through the interior mountains of Humboldt County. The settlement patterns reflect a rugged ranching and timber economy, evidenced by sites like Payton Ranch and various mountain hayfields. To the west, the Northwestern Pacific railroad tracks follow the winding course of the Eel River, passing through the small community of Oak Glen. This corridor highlights the critical role of rail transport in navigating the steep terrain and connecting these remote areas to broader markets.
