About this map

Covelo serves as the gateway to the sprawling basins of Round Valley and Williams Valley in this northern California survey. The landscape is defined by its deep cultural roots, evidenced by the Nome Lackee Cemetery and Yuki Cemetery, which sit along the eastern edge of the valley floor before the terrain climbs toward the high country. To the east, the Middle Fork Eel River carves through a landscape of distinct named flats and ridges, including Simmerley Flat and Atkinson Flat.

Transport through this part of Mendocino County relies on a network of named lanes and forest routes like Mendocino Pass Rd and Forest Highway Seven, which connect the valley floor to remote landmarks such as Blueschist Narrows and Asa Bean Ridge. The map details the transition from agricultural valley bottoms to the steep, wooded draws of George Lambert Canyon and the high point at Coyote Rock, documenting the complex topography of the region's interior.
