1918 Map of Logan Creek

About this map

Logan Creek and its northern drainage pattern define this California landscape during the early twentieth century. This preliminary edition survey captures the sharp topographical transition from the steep upland ridges to the flatter alluvial terrain typical of the Sacramento Valley's western edge. The drainage network, featuring North Fork Logan Creek and Hunters Creek, demonstrates the natural water flow through the foothills before reaching the cultivated valley floors. Along the southern edge of the map, the political boundary between Glenn Co and Colusa Co is clearly marked, providing a precise reference point for historical property research and local genealogy. Several bench marks, including BM 173 and BM 189, are strategically placed along early road paths, indicating the progress of precise surveying and infrastructure development in this rural agricultural district.
