About this map

The Eel River and its South Fork Eel River define this rugged portion of Humboldt County, as surveyed by the Corps Of Engineers, U. S. Army in 1916. The map reveals the intricate infrastructure of the early 20th-century timber and transport economy, following the route of the Northwestern Pacific R. R. as it snakes through river canyons past settlements like South Fork and McCann. The presence of numerous river-bend communities and family-named landmarks, such as Eaton Ranch and Mrs Carland, highlights the scattered nature of settlement before the modern highway system fully bypassed these river-oriented villages. Along the Van Duzen River, the tiny outpost of Bridgeville anchors the northeast corner of the sheet, while the rail line's engineering is visible through multiple Tunnel features and sidings like the Pac. LBR. Co. Siding, marking the industrial footprint of the Pacific Lumber Company.
