About this map

Redwood National Park dominates the western portion of this topographic study, where the steep, forested drainages of the coastal range drop toward the Klamath River. The terrain is defined by prominent high ground, specifically Holter Ridge and Pecwan Ridge, which separate numerous creek systems including Teetah Cr, Mettah Cr, and Johnson Cr.

Settlement is sparse in this protected landscape, centered primarily around the community of Johnsons in the northeast and the open clearing of Pitt Place Prairie to the south. Transportation is limited to narrow corridors like Bald Hills Rd and Johnson Rd, which navigate the complex network of ridges and watercourses. This map documents a region where federal conservation and natural hydrology dictate the footprint of human activity in Humboldt County.
