1952 Map of West of Biggs

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Water management and large agricultural estates define this 1952 landscape along the Glenn Co Butte Co boundary. The area is dominated by an intricate system of lateral roads and irrigation canals, most notably the Cherokee Canal which is flanked by a prominent Levee. This infrastructure supports major landholdings such as the Maxwell Ranch and Schohr Ranch, reflecting the mid-century transition to large-scale rice and grain production in the Sacramento Valley.
