1967 Map of Dos Rios

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The confluence of the Eel River and its Middle Fork anchors this remote Mendocino County landscape during the late 1960s. The small settlement of Dos Rios serves as the primary human landmark, situated where the Northwestern Pacific railroad tracks follow the river's winding canyon. This era reveals a region defined by its rugged topography and isolated camps, such as Deer Lodge and Hunters Camp, tucked away among the ridges. High-elevation features like Inspiration Point and Big Chemise Knob look down upon a network of drainage basins including Poonkinny Creek and Coal Creek. The map documents early industrial and water management footprints, from a Gaging Station on the river to scattered mines and the notable Poonkinny Road, providing a clear record of the area's transition between wilderness and early resource extraction.
