2012 Map of Jewett Rock

About this map

The Eel River winds through this section of the northern California backcountry, defining a landscape of sharp ridges and isolated homesteads. Near the settlement of Kekawaka, the river meets Kekawaka Cr and Queatchumpah Cr beneath the heights of Two Hundred and One Spur. This map documents a series of established ranching properties, including White Ranch, Lauffer Ranch, Wood Ranch, and Marr Ranch, which are connected by a network of winding roads like Island Mountain Rd and Lauffer Rd. Significant vertical landmarks such as Jewett Rock, Walker Butte, and Schroeder Rock dominate the terrain, while Walker Ridge and Mail Ridge offer expansive views over the surrounding Jewett Valley. The presence of specialized routes like Hogtrap Rd and Sesame Street Loop suggests the localized management of these high-elevation pastures and timberlands.
