About this map

Redwood National Park dominates the northwestern portion of this quadrangle, preserving a landscape defined by steep drainages and prominent ridgelines. The terrain is characterized by a dense network of watercourses, including Redwood Creek and the Upper S Fork Little River, which carve deep valleys between high points like Devils Peak and Squaw Tit. This area of Humboldt County is primarily defined by its natural topography rather than permanent settlements, reflecting a region dedicated to conservation and forestry.

Transport through this difficult terrain is limited, with K and K Rd providing one of the few named corridors across the ridges. Significant landmarks such as Shotgun Pass and Devils Pass indicate the historical routes used to navigate these coastal mountains. The map also highlights extensive ridge systems like Arbor Camp Ridge and Wiregrass Ridge, which offer a clear view of the complex hydrography feeding into the Little River and Panther Creek.
