2021 Map of Olinda

About this map

Olinda and Happy Valley anchor this landscape south of Redding, where the complex drainage systems of the Northern Sacramento Valley meet the foothills. The map reveals a dense network of gulches and canyons, such as China Gulch, Wagon Road Gulch, and Coal Pit Gulch, which suggest a history of resource extraction and transit through the undulating terrain. To the north, Clear Creek and Readings Bar mark significant water features, while the southern boundary follows the winding course of Cottonwood Creek along the Shasta and Tehama County line.
