1979 Map of Iaqua Buttes

About this map

Kneeland Airport serves as a localized hub in this high-elevation terrain of Humboldt County, situated atop the ridges between the Mad River and the complex drainage systems of the Elk River. The landscape is defined by its significant relief, featuring the Iaqua Buttes and prominent divides like Barry Ridge and Ashfield Ridge. This 1970s survey illustrates a specialized infrastructure suited for the elevation, including a Radio Tower (KIEM TV) and a dedicated Radio Facility. The network of transit is primarily composed of ridge-top routes such as Kneeland Road and Tim Mullen Road, which connect isolated features like Lone Star June and various corrals. Numerous springs and named gulches like Painter Gulch feed into the Lawrence Creek and Freshwater Creek systems, highlighting a topography shaped by steep timberland and narrow valleys characteristic of the northern coastal ranges.
