About this map

The rugged shoreline of Sonoma County comes into sharp focus through the early work of the Corps of Engineers, U. S. Army. This coastal landscape is defined by the winding paths of the Wheatfield Fork of Gualala River and the South Fork of Gualala River, which carve through the hills to reach the Pacific Ocean. Early 20th-century life here is marked by isolated settlements and a ranching economy, with family-named holdings such as Ohlson Ranch, Tabers Ranch, and Eckharts Ranch appearing in the interior. Maritime activity centers on small inlets like Timber Cove and Bihler Landing, while the Plantation PO serves as a vital community link. The map also identifies several rural schoolhouses, marked simply as SH, highlighting the sparse but organized settlement pattern of the era before modern development transformed the California coast.
