1969 Map of Capetown

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Capetown sits at the heart of this coastal Humboldt County terrain, where the Bear River winds between prominent elevations like Cape Ridge and Bear Ridge. The landscape is defined by a dense network of gulches and creeks, such as Flyblow Gulch and Singley Creek, that feed into the main river valley before it reaches the Pacific Ocean. This 1969 field-checked survey highlights the rural character of the region, emphasizing ranching and land management through features like the Green Pond Ranch and numerous named ridges including Branstetter Ridge and Walker Ridge. The interior is marked by significant topographical landmarks such as Bunker Hill and Twin Peaks, while the presence of a Radio Facility and various Drill Holes points to the mid-century infrastructure and resource exploration present in this part of Northern California.
