About this map

Redwood Valley and its agricultural surroundings are defined by the southward flow of the Russian River, which forms the central valley floor. In 2015, the map captures a landscape where established settlements like Potter Valley and Laughlin are connected by a network of rural roads such as Tomki RD and Laughlin Way. The irrigation infrastructure of the area is prominent, evidenced by the Powerhouse Canal and the W Canal that navigate the slopes east of the river.

Terrain variations are significant, moving from the flat riparian zones to the high ridges of Pine Lake Basin and Dead Horse Canyon. To the southeast, the ominously named Hells Delight Canyon and various drainages like Forsythe Cr and Bevans Cr contribute to the complex hydrology. This survey records the late 20th-century development of the region, from the residential clusters along Coyote Valley Blvd to the rural expanses of McGee Canyon.
