1959 Map of Upham

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad serves as the primary corridor through this high desert terrain, connecting small siding locations like Upham, Aleman, and Alivio. The landscape is defined by the cattle industry's footprint, where numerous water catchments such as Upside Down Tank, Saddle Tank, and McLeod Tank supported ranching operations in a dry environment. Family legacies are etched into the map at the Lyons-Slater Ranch, Lyons Homestead, and Tipton Ranch, offering specific coordinates for genealogical research in this part of Sierra County.
