About this map

The foothills of the Sugarloaf Mountain and the transition into the Sacramento Valley define this 1941 survey, where the Army Flying School and U S Auxiliary Field signal the wartime mobilization of the early 1940s. The landscape is a mix of rugged volcanic ridges and the productive alluvial plains of the Bosquejo land grant. Water management is central to the area's development, evidenced by the complex network of the Keefer Slough, Mud Creek, and the Lindo Channel.
