1969 Map of Ettersburg

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Ettersburg sits at the confluence of the Mattole River and Telegraph Ridge in this late 1960s topographic study. The landscape is defined by the steep, wooded drainages of the Lost Coast hinterlands, where numerous named springs and seasonal creeks like Salmon Creek and Kinsey Creek carve deep into Elk Ridge. Evidence of mid-century ranching and remote settlement is visible at Phelps Ranch and Briceland Ranch, connected by rugged tracks such as the Salmon Creek Road and various unnamed trails. The northeastern corner of the map captures a portion of Humboldt Redwoods State Park, centered around the upper reaches of Mill Creek. Steep landmarks like Clarks Butte and Graham Butte overlook Mattole Canyon, illustrating the isolated, difficult terrain that has historically shaped this corner of Humboldt County.
