About this map

Antelope Valley serves as the focal point for this early 20th-century survey of the California foothills, where industrial extraction and early transport routes defined the local economy. The settlement of Sites sits at the base of the ridges, acting as a terminus for the Colusa and Lake railroad and road system. This infrastructure was essential for the operation of the Colusa Quarry and the nearby Mc Gillery Quarry, which carved into the sandstone of the Coast Range foothills.
