1943 Map of Stewarts Point

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The coastal headlands of Sonoma County are documented here during the early 1940s, a time when isolated maritime landings still defined this stretch of the Pacific Ocean shoreline. The settlement of Stewarts Point serves as a focal point near Fisherman Bay, while further north, Del Mar Landing and Black Pt Landing illustrate the historical reliance on small, rocky coves for coastal trade. Inland, the topography is dominated by steep ridges such as Brush Ridge and Miners Ridge, which hem in the complex drainage system of the South Fork Gualala River and the Wheatfield Fork Gualala River. The junction at Valley Crossing marks a rare point of intersection in the river valleys, where Buckeye Creek meets the south fork, reflecting the era's limited road network and the importance of natural watercourses in navigating the northern California coast.
