What modes of transportation are available to people in the setting.
There aren't a lot of cars or other vehicles, mostly due to the terrain. There are only a handful of major roads and they have not been maintained properly since the collapse. Off the roads, the area is pretty heavily forested.
Boat travel is pretty significant. My current placement of Squatch-ville is primarily accessible by water. Also, the ferry service enables travel and communication with smaller communities surrounding the bay. water travel is also useful when leaving the region. In order to avoid the psychic overlords of Crescent City, those wishing to travel to Brookings, Oregon and other points north will typically do so by boat.
The most unique thing would have to be the Kinetic Sculptures. In the present day, the Kinetic Sculpture Race is a fun and wacky thing. After the collapse, it's become inspiration. Because of the engineering requirements to participate (the vehicle must be people-powered and capable of travel on water as well as varied terrain), the Kinetic Museum in Ureka and the oddball vehicles on display have been vital examples to building vehicles that can be used in a variety of environments without needing power beyond what the user can provide.
Suddenly I'm imaging a version of Mad Max: Fury Road with Kinetic Sculptures instead of motorized vehicles.
