1944 Map of Wilbur Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1948

About this map

Wilbur Springs serves as a focal point for this landscape along the border of Colusa and Lake Counties, where quicksilver mining once dominated the local economy. The southern reaches are densely marked with mineral claims, including the Abbott Mine, Mercury Mine, and the Wide Awake Mine, clustered near the intersection of Sulphur Creek and Grizzly Creek. This era of extractive industry contrasts with the surrounding agricultural and ranching terrain, seen at locations like Huffmaster Ranch and the settlement of Leesville to the north.
