About this map

The lumber-driven landscape of the Eel River valley is documented here at the midpoint of the twentieth century, anchored by the company town of Scotia and neighboring Rio Dell. The Northwestern Pacific railroad follows the river's path, serving as the industrial artery for the region alongside the Redwood Highway. The map reveals a rugged interior defined by expansive ranching operations, including the Chase Ranch, McClellan Ranch, and Ambrosini Ranch, interspersed between the high timbered ridges of Bear River Ridge and Rainbow Ridge.
