1961 Map of Bieber

About this map

Big Swamp and the surrounding river systems define this portion of the Pit River basin during the early 1960s. The settlement of Bieber serves as a central hub, flanked by Pumpkin Center and the specialized rail junction of Nubieber, where the Great Northern and Western Pacific railroads converge. This era of land management is evident in the numerous water control features like the Taylor Creek canal and various reservoirs such as Roberts Reservoir and Hardin Reservoir.
