About this map

Butte Creek and its complex network of sloughs and irrigation channels define this 1950 survey of the California Central Valley. The landscape reveals a highly engineered agricultural environment where natural features like Esquon Slough and Durham Slough coexist with the Western Canal and Odell Canal. The settlement of Nelson serves as a local hub, situated at the junction of Nelson Road and the Southern Pacific railroad line.
