TEXT:
More photos and text on flood damage. The Eel Bottom land did not suffer much as the Eel did not raise much. The approach to the Yager Creek Bridge washed out. The bottom land near Loleta was covered with lots of woody debris which damaged fences. Pages 10 & 11 contain many photos of flood damage. The Fortuna Trailer Village was under 4' feet of water. Sandy Prairie was flooded. The Arcata Bottom was a lake. Good oblique aerial photo of Orick flooded. The view NE showing the residential & commercial area south of Redwood Creek.
