1952 Map of Richardson Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

Richardson Springs sits at the geological transition where the Sacramento Valley floor meets the rising volcanic ridges of the Lassen National Forest. Surveyed in the early 1950s, this landscape is defined by a series of parallel canyons and ridges—including Keefer Ridge and Anderson Ridge—carved by waterways like Mud Creek and Rock Creek. To the west, the valley floor is dominated by agricultural development and early transport corridors, anchored by the Southern Pacific railroad and the small settlements of Cana and Nord.
