2018 Map of Eureka Hill

About this map

Eureka Hill sits amidst the complex topography of Mendocino County, where the dramatic geological presence of the San Andreas Fault cuts across the northern landscape. This 2018 survey reveals a terrain defined by steep ridges and an intricate network of waterways, including the Garcia River and the N Fork Garcia River. The area is characterized by timbered heights like Adams Ridge and significant clearings such as Jacks Opening, connected by a winding network of primitive and local roads like Mountain View Rd and Tenmile Cutoff Rd. The drainage patterns, from Rolling Brook to North Fork Schooner Gulch, illustrate the watershed dynamics typical of the California coastal range. This map captures the intersection of natural hazards and rural infrastructure in a landscape where human footprints like Pitts Pkwy follow the contours of the challenging earth.
