1947 Map of Bidwell Bar

About this map

Bidwell Bar State Park sits at the convergence of rugged Sierra foothills, where the North Fork Feather River, Middle Fork Feather River, and South Fork Feather River meet. This mid-century landscape is defined by the complex water systems required for California's growth, including the Palermo Canal and the Western Canal. The map captures a transition in land use, showing several active ranching operations such as Jamison Ranch and Miners Ranch alongside early recreational and utility infrastructure.
