1970 Map of Oroville
USGS Topo · Published 1984About this map
The industrial and water management infrastructure of the Feather River corridor dominates this 1970 study of Butte County. Significant landscape modifications are visible, including the Thermalito Forebay and the Thermalito Power Canal, which redirected regional water flow for power and irrigation. Along the river, the Feather River Fish Hatchery and Powerhouse stand as key landmarks of the era's utility development. To the north, the dramatic plateau of North Table Mountain rises above a landscape cut by Coal Canyon and Beatson Creek.
