1979 Map of Red Bluff

About this map

The Sacramento River carves a central path through this Northern California landscape, anchoring a network of agricultural communities and river-oriented infrastructure. This survey captures the transition from the fertile valley floor to the high elevations of the Trinity Mountains and the Yolla Bolly Middle Eel Wilderness to the west. The development of Red Bluff is shown in detail, including the Red Bluff Municipal Airport and the Red Bluff Diversion Dam, which managed the river's flow for the region's expansive ranching and farming operations.
