1978 Map of Schoepp Flat

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Schoepp Flat dominates this high-plains landscape in Butte County, reflecting a topography defined by complex drainage networks and early water management infrastructure. The survey illustrates the reliance on diverted water for this arid region, highlighted by the presence of the North Canal and a supporting Lateral system in the southwest corner. The natural drainage of the area is characterized by several meandering waterways, including Willow Creek, Jug Creek, and Sand Creek, which carve through the terrain towards larger collectors like South Double R Creek and Butte Creek. This map captures a moment in the late 1970s when the land was primarily organized around these vital water sources and topographic flats, serving as an essential record for those studying the intersection of Western water rights and traditional ranching geography.
