1954 Map of Sutter Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

Sutter Bypass and the West Butte Slough define the low-lying agricultural landscape south of the volcanic rise of the Sutter Buttes. This mid-century survey reveals an economy centered on gas extraction and irrigation, evidenced by numerous Gas Wells and the Wadsworth Canal. The community of Sutter serves as the primary hub, where local streets like Acacia Ave and Perry St meet the Sacramento Northern railroad line. Local history is anchored by the Stohlman Cem and the Slough Sch near the crossroads of Tarke. The dramatic topography of the volcanic peaks, including North Butte, West Butte, and Old Craggy, provides a stark contrast to the gridded farmland and drainage works that surround them.
