1961 Map of Williamsburg NW
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
Salado Creek and Palomas Creek carve through the arid terrain of Sierra County in this early 1960s survey. The landscape is defined by the practical management of water in a desert environment, evidenced by the presence of the Cuchillo Community Ditch and the Palomas Community Ditch. These irrigation features, along with an Aqueduct, suggest a history of communal water rights and agricultural effort concentrated in the canyon bottoms.
