About this map

Wheatland anchors the southern portion of this landscape at the intersection of the Southern Pacific railroad and the Bear River. This 1940s survey reveals a region defined by large agricultural holdings and water management, notably the historic Johnson Rancho and extensive Levee systems designed to control Dry Creek and Grasshopper Slough. The northern section of the map is dominated by the Camp Beale Military Reservation, showing the geometric grid of the base just years after its establishment during World War II.
