DESCRIPTION

Chart of Humboldt Bay, California, charting from Indian Island to a bit south of the City of Humboldt. The cities of Eureka, Humboldt and Bucksport are all detailed along with other inland features. A small-scale inset map shows a wider area north to the City of Union and south to Table Bluff. A very nice elevation profile of the View of Red Bluff Entrance Humboldt Bay is included. Depth soundings, bathymetry, main channel range and sailing directions are also shown.

IMPORTANT NOTE:

All of our United States Coast Survey (USCS), United States Coast & Geodetic Survey (USC&GS), and similar maps and charts have been professionally unfolded and flattened using humidity baths, semi-permeable membrane, and drying blotter techniques. Most others you typically see on eBay have not been, and worse, are quickly and crudely unfolded for the low-quality photos you see. Unfolding these maps in that way is damaging and weakens them. Please be aware.
