1966 Map of Longvale

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

Longvale serves as a central junction where the Northwestern Pacific railroad tracks and the winding path of 101 meet the waters of Long Valley Creek. In the late 1960s, this portion of Mendocino County remained a landscape of steep ridges and deep canyon drainages, defined by the convergence of Outlet Creek and the railroad corridor. The presence of the Sherwood Rancheria near Sherwood Valley and the small settlement at Graves highlights the historic human footprint in these uplands. Topographic details like Sam Watt Rock and Shimmin Ridge frame a territory where transportation was historically dictated by the narrow valley floors, while Moss Cove Rest Area and Irvine Rest Area mark the mid-century evolution of the highway as a primary artery for travelers through the Coast Range.
