About this map

Mendocino National Forest dominates the western half of this landscape, where high peaks like Eagle Peak and Red Mtn give way to a network of creeks draining into the Sacramento Valley. The transition from the rugged Raglin Ridge to the eastern plains reveals a mid-century rural economy defined by family ranching and agriculture. Named homesteads and operations such as Scribner Ranch, Conklin Orchard, and the Finnell Ranch are scattered along the foothills, illustrating the settlement pattern of the period.
