1991 Map of Willits

About this map

Little Lake Valley serves as the focal point of this Mendocino County landscape, where the city of Willits transitions from a dense grid into the surrounding hills. This 1991 provisional map captures the community during a period of infrastructure management, noting the Sewage Treatment facility and Radio Towers alongside traditional local landmarks like the Fairground. The northern reaches are defined by a complex drainage system including Outlet Creek and Berry Creek, while the settlement of Muir sits to the south. Land use in the valley is varied, featuring the Ells-Willits Airport and a prominent Gravel Pit. The surrounding topography is marked by significant elevations such as Big Darby Peak and Tenney Peak, illustrating the contrast between the flat alluvial floor and the steep ridges of the California Coast Ranges.
