About this map

The Milton settlement and the historical ranching landscapes of Calaveras County define this 2012 survey. Located in the southwestern portion of the map, Milton is complemented by the nearby Milton Cem, providing a focal point for genealogical research in this rural region. To the northwest, the residential development of Scenic Valley Ranchos sits near Jenny Lind, while the eastern terrain is dominated by the Bear Mountains and the sprawling Salt Spring Valley.

Water management is a central theme of the landscape, illustrated by the presence of the Salt Spring Valley Reservoir, New Hogan Lake, and the Old McCormick Reservoir. The map documents the intricate network of irrigation and water transport through features like the South Gulch Ditch and Rock Creek Ditch. Several named ranches, including Gann Ranch and Tower Ranch, along with the curiously named Lost City and Siberia, offer insights into local land ownership and the pastoral character of the area.
