About this map

The expansive Butte Sink wetland complex dominates this 1911 survey of the Sacramento Valley floor, where the borders of Colusa, Butte, and Sutter counties converge. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of waterways, including Butte Creek, Sanborn Slough, and Angel Slough, which trace the low-lying basin. This survey, conducted just after the turn of the century by R.B. Marshall and T.G.Gerdine, captures the area before modern large-scale water management fully transformed the natural floodplains.
