2012 Map of Redding

About this map

The Sacramento River carves through this northern California landscape, anchored by the city of Redding and the adjacent industrial and residential sprawl of the early 21st century. The map documents a complex water management system, featuring the Keswick Reservoir and the Anderson Cottonwood Canal winding through the eastern corridor. Beyond the urban center, the terrain rises toward Sugarloaf and Seventeen Hill, revealing a network of smaller settlements including Keswick, Shasta, and Centerville. Local history is preserved in the location of Saint Josephs Cem and the Middleton Cem, while the aviation history of the area is represented by Benton Field. The landscape is a mix of suburban development and natural drainage, with Olney Cr, Tadpole Cr, and Clear Cr feeding into the river system. This survey provides a clear view of the region's transition from historical gold-country roots to a modern regional hub.
