1921 Map of Shasta Valley Sheet No 2

USGS Topo · Published 1921

About this map

Grenada serves as the central rail and transit hub in this 1921 survey, where the Southern Pacific (Shasta Route) and the Pacific Highway converge along the eastern valley floor. The map, produced in cooperation with the U. S. Reclamation Service, highlights the complex water management systems of the era, most notably the winding path of the Old Yreka Mining Ditch as it traverses the western slopes. Local civic life is anchored by the Excelsior School to the north and Vineland School tucked into the foothills. The landscape is defined by the sharp contrast between the irrigated valley along the Shasta River and the steep, intricate contours of the surrounding ridges. This document captures Siskiyou County just as modern infrastructure began to formalize the irrigation and transportation networks of the Shasta River basin.
