1958 Map of Purdys Gardens

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Cow Mountain Ridge and the Mayacmas Mountains dominate this 1950s landscape, illustrating the complex terrain of the Mendocino and Lake County border. The survey details a network of ridges and basins, such as Ashmore Ridge and Red Mtn Basin, where family-named landmarks like Eaglepoint Ranch, Kelsey Cabin, and James Cabin suggest a history of high-country ranching and seasonal occupation. Along the southwestern corner, the Russian River valley serves as a transportation corridor featuring the Northwestern Pacific railroad and the Redwood Highway. Near the river, institutions like the Hopland Field Sta (Univ of Calif) and the Hopland Indian Reservation are clearly delineated. Numerous remote outposts including Fountain Of Youth Camp and Jerky Camp are connected only by jeep trails, reflecting the area's mid-century character before modern development.
