2021 Map of Tyee City

About this map

Tyee City and the surrounding Arcata Bottoms landscape define this coastal section of Humboldt County. The map details the intricate network of water and wetlands where Mad River Slough and Liscom Slough meet the shifting shoreline of the Pacific Ocean. This area is characterized by a high concentration of recreational and access paths, including the extensive Mad River to North Spit Trl and the Mad River Beach County Park Trails Trl, reflecting the contemporary focus on coastal preservation and public use. Inland, roads like Lanphere Rd and Mad River Rd provide access to the low-lying agricultural and marshy terrain that sits just behind the protective dunes. The layout of these trails, such as the Beach Loop Trl and South Hollow Trl, underscores the complex geography of the north spit and its ecological importance.
