About this map

The southern outskirts of Ukiah and the winding course of the Russian River define the landscape in this Mendocino County survey. The valley floor is marked by the presence of the Ukiah Municipal Airport and the small settlement of El Roble, where the river parallels the modern highway corridor. To the west and east, the terrain rises sharply into the Mayacmas Mountains and towards Cleland Mountain, revealing a network of family-named ranch roads and rural landmarks like the Indian Cemetery near Morrison Creek.

The map details the hydrological complexity of the region, where tributaries such as Robinson Creek, McNab Creek, and Feliz Creek carve deep into the foothills. Notable high points like Elledge Peak and Goat Rock provide clear orientation in this transitional landscape between the agricultural valley and the timbered slopes. Rural life is anchored by small locales like Largo and Bus McCall, while names like Butler Ranch Road and McNab Ranch Road hint at the area’s established ranching history.
