The Pacific Ocean dominates this maritime survey, where the rugged coastline of Humboldt County meets the sea. Focused on a series of distinctive coastal landmarks, the map details the terrain of False Cape and its surrounding rocky outcroppings. Small seasonal drainages like Oil Cr and Flyblow Gulch carve into the shoreline, illustrating the natural drainage patterns of this coastal shelf. The coastline is marked by offshore hazards including Mussel Rock, Elephant Rock, and False Cape Rock, which serve as permanent navigational landmarks in a region defined by its exposure to the sea. This record captures the precise state of the shoreline and public land survey boundaries for t2n r3w and t1n r3w just before the end of the second decade of the 2000s.
