The isolation of this colony in a time when there was little adequate long-distance transportation ultimately led to the dissolution of the colony's fruit market.[3] References1. ^1 2 {{gnis|1658590}} {{Humboldt County, California}}{{HumboldtCountyCA-geo-stub}}2. ^1 2 3 {{California's Geographic Names|64}} 3. ^Turner, Dennis W.; Turner, Gloria H.
