USGS Topo · Published 1943About this map
The Eel River delta and its intricate network of sloughs dominate this 1940s survey of the Humboldt County coastline. The landscape is defined by its transition from the tidal waters of Humboldt Bay and the Pacific Ocean to the fertile bottomlands that support numerous family ranch holdings, such as Russ Ranch and Mayflower Ranch. The presence of several rural schoolhouses, including Island Sch and Centerville Sch, underscores the dispersed nature of these agricultural communities before mid-century consolidation.
