1979 Map of Mc Whinney Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

McWhinney Creek and its many forks define this deeply dissected landscape in Humboldt County during the late 1970s. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of watercourses, including Freshwater Creek and Salmon Creek, which indicate a region heavily shaped by its hydrology. Human presence is concentrated at the Elk River Scout Camp, where a water tank is noted on the high ground above Browns Gulch. Evidence of past habitation or industry appears at Falls (Ruins), suggesting former activity that had already faded by the time of this 1979 survey. The map reveals a remote area primarily accessible via unimproved roads, where the North Fork Elk River and its branches provide the primary geographical orientation for researchers and land use historians.
