About this map

Gerber and Tehama serve as the primary hubs in this agricultural corridor of the Sacramento Central Valley, where water management systems define the landscape. The intricate network of the Corning Canal and the Tehama-Colusa Canal snakes through the territory, supporting the orchards and fields that spread between the Sacramento River to the east and the inland foothills. Smaller settlements like Proberta, Las Flores, and El Camino are connected by a grid of named rural roads, including Marenco Ranch Rd and Hatfield Rd.

Along the river, riparian features such as Todd Island, Mooney Island, and Sacramento Bar illustrate the shifting nature of the waterway. Local history is anchored by the Tehama Cem and established rural crossings over seasonal drainages like Elder Cr, Coyote Cr, and Oat Cr. This survey captures the modern intersection of historic township lines and the vital irrigation infrastructure essential to the region's character.
