About this map

Agricultural development and water management define this landscape between Gridley and Live Oak during the mid-20th century. The complex network of irrigation ditches, including the Sutter Butte Canal and various unnamed laterals, supports the orchards and fields flanking the Feather River. Educational hubs are prominent throughout the rural sections, with locations such as the West Liberty School, Manzanita Sch, and Hedger Sch serving local farm families. The Southern Pacific railroad corridor acts as the primary spine for transportation and settlement growth, connecting the urban centers to the surrounding countryside.
