1951 Map of West of Gerber

About this map

Red Bank Creek flows through the northern reaches of this Tehama County landscape, which is defined by a dense network of seasonal drainages and local roads. Mapped during the early 1950s, the area shows a clear transition from the higher terrain of La Barranca Colorada toward the more settled plains of Las Flores. This era of ranching and early rural development is captured through features like the Oat Creek Sch (Aban'd), signaling shifting populations in the foothills. Local transport is anchored by routes such as Paskenta Road and the Boggs and Champlin Road, which connect isolated reservoirs and a series of spillways. The presence of a Gaging Sta along Elder Creek reflects the vital importance of water management in this part of the Sacramento Valley, where creeks like Coyote Creek and Willow Creek carve distinct paths through the dry landscape.
