About this map

Redwood Creek defines the central topography of this Humboldt County terrain, carving through the landscape between Wiregrass Ridge and Nixon Ridge. By the late 1990s, this area reflects a blend of protected federal lands and working ranch land. The northern boundary touches the Hoopa Valley Indian Reservation, while much of the surrounding territory is managed within the Six Rivers National Forest. Small-scale human presence is marked by isolated landmarks like the Redwood Creek Ranch and the Camp Anderson (Site) near the water's edge.

Transportation through these high elevations relies on routes like Chezem Road, passing through key crossings at Lord-Ellis Summit and Berry Summit. For those researching local education or community infrastructure, the Redwood School sits in the southern portion of the sheet near Bald Mountain. The map also captures specialized points of interest, including a Gaging Station on the creek and distinctive geological features such as Princess Rock and Circle Point.
