1943 Map of Capay

USGS Topo · Published 1945

About this map

Monticello sits at the heart of this mid-1940s landscape, just years before the landscape was fundamentally altered by hydraulic projects. The map documents a complex irrigation network emerging from Cache Creek, featuring the Capay Dam and associated waterways like the Adams Canal and Old Capay Canal. These engineering efforts support a valley dominated by family-named ranching operations, including the Gunn Ranch, Mecks Ranch, and Cowell Ranch.
