2021 Map of Ferndale OE W

About this map

False Cape and its surrounding coastal hazards define this stretch of the Humboldt County coastline. This 2021 survey focuses on the maritime boundary where the Pacific Ocean meets a steep, undeveloped shoreline marked by significant rocky outcrops like Mussel Rock and Elephant Rock. The map illustrates the intersection of public land survey sections, specifically t2n r3w and t1n r3w, along a topography cut by narrow drainages including Oil Cr and the aptly named Flyblow Gulch. This specific location represents a largely roadless portion of the California coast, providing a modern perspective on a landscape that remains dominated by natural features and maritime landmarks like False Cape Rock rather than human settlement.
