1932 Map of Yreka
USGS Topo · Published 1932About this map
The Klamath River and Scott River systems define this northern California landscape, which was actively being surveyed in the early 1930s. The map illustrates a region transitioning from a frontier mining economy to established agricultural centers. Mining operations such as the Sterling Mine, Cinnabar Mine, and Scorpion Mine are scattered across the peaks of Klamath National Forest, while the valley floors support a dense network of local education, evidenced by the Shasta River Sch, Delphic Sch, and Meamber Sch. The Pacific Highway and Southern Pacific railroad corridor through Shasta Valley connect the larger settlements of Yreka, Montague, and Grenada. In the west, Scott Valley hosts the communities of Fort Jones, Greenview, and Etna, showing a distinct settlement pattern centered on fertile lands and early road networks during this interwar period.
