1912 Map of Clear Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1912

About this map

Centerville Road and the Chico and Oroville Road bisect the foothills of Butte County in this 1910 survey. The map details a landscape defined by sharp elevation changes and the watercourses that carved them, including Butte Creek to the north and the complex drainage of Ash Creek and Clear Creek further south. Near the southern edge, the Esquon area is marked with precise topographic contours, illustrating the transition from higher elevations toward the valley floor. Researchers will find the alignment of the Magalia Road particularly useful for tracing early automotive and wagon routes through the county. The survey provides a clear view of the transportation corridors established just after the turn of the century, showing how early roads followed the natural contours of the land around Dry Cr and Roberts Creek.
