1977 Map of Maple Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Six Rivers National Forest dominates this section of Humboldt County, where the landscape is defined by the steep drainages of Redwood Creek and its many tributaries. The area reflects a rugged ranching and timber-oriented economy in the late 1970s, evidenced by scattered family outposts such as Russ Ranch, Carson Ranch, and Rock Ranch. A small settlement at Maple Creek sits near the confluence of Boulder Creek and the Mad River, anchored by a local Substation. High-altitude clearings like Lake Prairie, High Prairie, and Heustis Prairie break up the dense canopy, while the presence of a Quarry and numerous Jeep Trails indicates active land use in this mountainous terrain. Genealogists and local historians can trace legacy landmarks from Fernwood in the north to the slopes of Snow Camp Mtn in the south, capturing a specific era of California's coastal range history.
