2018 Map of Smith River

About this map

The Smith River estuary and the surrounding Del Norte County coastline define this landscape where the Pacific Ocean meets the northernmost reaches of California. The settlement of Smith River serves as a central hub, with its streets organized around 1st St and W First St, while the Smith River Cem provides a point of genealogical interest nearby. To the north, the terrain transitions into the Siskiyou National Forest along the border of Curry County, Oregon. The coastal margin is marked by significant topographical features such as Pyramid Point, Prince Island, and Hunter Rock, illustrating the coastal geology of Pelican Bay. Further south, the map details the marshy reaches of Tillas Slough and Yontocket Slough, which separate the mainland from Tillas Island and the coastal community of Yontocket.
