1967 Map of Covelo West

About this map

Round Valley Indian Reservation Boundary defines the eastern transition from the ridges of Mendocino County into the agricultural flats of Round Valley. This 1967 manuscript survey shows Covelo as the regional hub, supported by a network of rural lanes including Sawmill Rd and Hopper Lane. The landscape reflects a mix of timber, ranching, and light industry, evidenced by the Sawmill near the Round Valley Airport and a Gas Mine tucked into the western slopes of Cherry Ridge. Genealogy researchers will find several notable burial grounds, such as Pine Grove Cem and Valley View Cem, along with local landmarks like the 7th Day Adventist Sch and the Round Valley High School. The terrain is marked by numerous family-named landmarks like Goforth Ridge and Eberly Creek, illustrating the deep-rooted settlement patterns of the Eel River basin.
