1922 Map of Shasta Valley Sheet No 3

USGS Topo · Published 1922

About this map

Yreka serves as the focal point of this 1922 topographic study, showing a grid of streets and buildings along the foothills where the town meets the rugged western edge of the valley. The map, produced in cooperation with the U. S. Reclamation Service, emphasizes the water infrastructure vital to the region's development, notably the Yreka Ditch winding along the contour lines to the west. To the south of the main town center, local landmarks include a Cem and the Greenhorn School, providing specific points of interest for genealogists tracing early twentieth-century residents. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the valley floor to the steep elevations of the surrounding mountains, with the path of Greenhorn Creek and the primary Highway carving a corridor through the center of the sheet.
