2018 Map of Iron Point

About this map

The Humboldt River corridor dominates the northern landscape of this region, winding through a series of complex wetlands and braided water systems including Herrin Slough. This 2018 survey captures the intersection of critical high-desert geography and modern transportation infrastructure. To the west, the steep rise of Edna Mtn and the narrow passage of Emigrant Canyon overlook the sprawling flatlands of the Pumpernickel Valley. The presence of Red House in the northeastern corner and the landmark peak of Iron Point provide essential reference points for understanding the historical movement through this arid basin. Modern access is marked by Froutdag Rd, which cuts across the valley floor, bridging the gap between the rugged mountainous terrain and the riparian lowlands of the river basin.
