1967 Map of Black Butte Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Stony Creek Irrigation Canal and its associated water management infrastructure dominate this section of the Sacramento Valley borderlands. The landscape reflects the engineering efforts of the Black Butte Dam Project Headquarters, showing Black Butte Lake at its full spillway elevation and the primary Black Butte Dam structure. The transition from the alluvial plains of the east to the rising Orland Buttes in the west is marked by a network of drainage creeks, including Burch Creek and Sehorn Creek, which feed into the central reservoir.
