1951 Map of Capell Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Capell Valley and its surrounding ridgelines in Napa County are dominated by a series of steep canyons and small agricultural pockets as they appeared in the early 1950s. The settlement at Moskowite serves as a central point, situated near the Moskowite Reservoir and the Capell Sch. The map reveals a landscape defined by names that suggest early ranching and mining activity, such as the Munson Ranch and the Asbestos Mine located north of the valley floor. To the west, the watershed for Milliken Creek leads into the Milliken Reservoir, while the southern reaches transition into the distinct geography of Wooden Valley. This era shows a network of rural school sites, including the Atlas Peak Sch and the Blue Mtn Sch (Site), highlighting the distributed nature of this mountain community before more modern consolidation.
