1951 Map of Red Bluff West

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The western outskirts of Red Bluff and the rising foothills of Tehama County are captured here just after mid-century. A network of creeks, including Dibble Creek, Pine Creek, and Reeds Creek, carves through the landscape, dictating the placement of early infrastructure. The Southern Pacific railroad runs through the northeast corner, passing the Marion Sch and Wilcox Oaks Golf Course. Closer to the town center, community institutions like the County Hospital, St Marys Cem, and Lincoln Sch are clearly marked. Further west, the map shows the more rural character of the era with the Reeds Creek Sch and the Bidwell Airport. The terrain transitions from the developed flats of the Sacramento Valley into more complex formations like the Brickyard and the various forks of the local creek systems.
