About this map

The California Western Railroad & Navigation Co snakes through the deep canyons of the Noyo River, connecting isolated logging outposts like Alpine and Northspur in this 1916 survey. This landscape is defined by the industrial pulse of early twentieth-century Mendocino timber operations, where specialized narrow-gauge lines like the Caspar Railroad and Albion Lumber Company tracks serviced a network of remote work sites. Several named locations such as Tie Camp, Boyles Camp, and Logging Camp provide evidence of the mobile labor communities that once moved through these forests. Along the coast and major waterways, sites like Caspar, Glenblair, and Big River Lagoon served as critical nodes for processing and shipping lumber. Further south, the map details the Albion River drainage and the inland settlement at Comptche, showing the rugged transit routes used before modern infrastructure altered the region's accessibility.
