A Photographic Exploration Of Wigi (Currently Called Humboldt Bay), Aldaron Laird
A Photographic Exploration Of Wigi (Currently Called Humboldt Bay), Aldaron Laird
Trade & Scholarly Monographs
For decades, Aldaron has walked the shores of the bay, climbed its nearby sand dunes, and kayaked its entire periphery, taking over 25,000 photos that reveal the beauty of Wigi as it might appear in some magical, glimmering dream. From those thousands of photos, Aldaron selected 119 for this book. For each photo he kept, he discarded 209 others, which means that of those 25,000 images, he used less than one percent. We might think that taking all those photos required a tremendous amount of work, but it soon becomes clear that Aldaron did not work on this book, he …

Lift Up The Sky! Levanten El Cielo!, Barbara Dolan-Wilkinson
Lift Up The Sky! Levanten El Cielo!, Barbara Dolan-Wilkinson
Fiction and Poetry
For sixteen years, I lived and worked at Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park located on the coast at the northernmost edge of California. One of my favorite activities was leading children on nature hikes into the ancient forest. Encouraging children to discover the redwoods and watching their eyes sparkle as they listened to “Lift Up the Sky!” was magic for me and I believe it was for them, too.
Durante dieciséis años, viví y trabajé en el Parque Estatal Prairie Creek Redwoods, ubicado en la costa en el extremo norte de California. Una de mis actividades favoritas era guiar a …

Humboldt Bay Shoreline, North Eureka To South Arcata: A History Of Cultural Influences, Jerry Rohde
Trade & Scholarly Monographs
In 1850 the area east of Arcata Bay was a tapestry of wetlands and sloughs, fringed by conifer-clad hillsides. Canoe channels and trails connected a string of Wiyot villages that nearly encircled the bay.
Then white settlers arrived, establishing towns at Eureka and Union (Arcata). With them came profound changes in the landscape. Rock quarries. Log drives. “Reclaimed” ranchland. An airport. Four and a half railroads. In 170 years the area was transformed into a web of structures and infrastructures that connected what became the two largest cities in Humboldt County.
Recently a new period of change has begun, promising …
