1952 Map of Crescent City

About this map

Crescent City anchors the rugged coast of Del Norte County, shown here in the early 1950s as a vital hub for the regional timber and maritime industries. The coastal plain is dominated by the sprawling waters of Lake Earl and Lake Talawa, while the interior rises sharply into the heavily forested ridges of the Siskiyou National Forest. Cultural history is deeply etched into the landscape, from the Smith River Indian Reservation and the Yontocket Indian Village Site to the historic Nickerson Ranch.
