2012 Map of Requa

About this map

The Klamath River reaches its terminus at the Pacific coast in this detailed study of the Del Norte County shoreline. The small settlement of Requa sits at the river mouth, a site of significant history for local indigenous people and early river traffic. Just upstream, Camp Klamath and Hoppaw mark the riverbanks, where the floodplains of Waukell Flat and Hatzis Flat offer a rare break from the surrounding steep terrain. High elevations such as Flint Ridge and Del Ponte Ridge loom over the waterway, while the Louis P DeMartin Senior Memorial Bridge provides the primary crossing for travelers moving north toward Wilson Cr. Along the coast, distinctive geological features like Footsteps Rocks and False Klamath Rock punctuate the shoreline near False Klamath Cove.
