USGS Topo · Published 1953About this map
Agricultural irrigation and transit networks define this 1952 landscape in the Sacramento Valley. The Southern Pacific and Sacramento Northern railroads provide the primary north-south axes, connecting the town of Biggs with outlying settlements like Richvale and East Biggs. This era is characterized by intensive land management, evidenced by the USDA Rice Experimental Sta and a complex system of water infrastructure including the Cherokee Canal, Main Drainage Canal, and numerous siphons.
