1917 Map of Wolfskill

About this map

The Southern Pacific railroad line, specifically the (Clear Lake Branch), cuts a sharp north-south path through this 1917 survey of Solano County. This rail corridor established the settlement pattern for the era, connecting the small stations and agricultural hubs of Hartley, Allendale, and Wolfskill. The landscape is defined by the transition from the steep, contoured hills near Drakes Pt in the southwest to the broad, flat plains of the Central Valley to the east. Along the northern edge, the Rio de los Putos creates a natural boundary, its meandering course contrasting with the rigid section lines of the Mt Diablo Meridian. The presence of small, named points like Violet at the base of the foothills illustrates the early 20th-century reliance on rail access for rural California communities before the expansion of the modern highway system.
