About this map

The Navarro River cuts through the heart of this Mendocino County landscape, where the settlement of Philo sits at the junction of several mountain-and-valley routes. This area is defined by its ridge-and-canyon topography, featuring prominent landmarks like Clow Mtn and Peterson Ridge. The valley floor preserves important local heritage sites, including Shields Cem and the Philbrick Mill, indicating a history of early industry and settlement near the riverbanks.

Conservation and recreation are visible at Hendy Woods State Park, where the Hermit Hut Trl and Discovery Trl wind through the timber. The map also documents modern infrastructure like the Boonville Airport and numerous rural roads such as Anderson Valley Way and Mountain View Rd. Watercourses like Rancheria Cr and Anderson Cr drain the surrounding canyons, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the Anderson Valley.
