About this map

The Napa Valley wine country is captured in this 1950s study, anchored by the settlement of Calistoga. The Napa River meanders through the valley floor, flanked by the Southern Pacific railroad and the Silverado Trail. This era reveals the intersection of early viticulture and the region's industrial past, featuring the Schramsberg Winery Historical Marker alongside the Palisade Mine and Kellet Mine.

The landscape rises sharply from the valley to Diamond Mountain and Rattlesnake Ridge, where numerous springs like Mud Spring and Cold Spring feed the creek systems. Significant heritage sites are noted, including the Bale Mill Historical Monument and the established Bothe Napa Valley State Park. Local infrastructure at the time included a Landing Strip, the Fairgrounds, and essential transit routes like Petrified Forest Road.
