1956 Map of Montgomery Creek

About this map

The Pit River winds through the northern reaches of this mid-century survey, a landscape defined by significant hydroelectric infrastructure and indigenous heritage sites. The presence of the Pit No 5 Powerhouse and Pit No 4 Powerhouse, along with their associated dams and surge chambers, highlights the industrial importance of the river during this era. Further south, the Roaring Creek Indian Rancheria and Montgomery Creek Indian Rancheria mark important cultural locations alongside the settlements of Wengler and Montgomery Creek.
