This 15-minute USGS topographic map of Cecilville, California, was first published in 1955 and printed on this thick sheet in 1974, with a green woodland tint marking the forested areas. It covers a rugged stretch of northwestern California about 55 miles northwest of Redding, spanning parts of Siskiyou and Trinity counties and taking in portions of the Klamath and Trinity national forests. The quad reaches into the Trinity Alps Wilderness and the Salmon Mountains – steep, remote country. Never folded and in very good condition, it would frame well.

FEATURES SHOWN ON THE MAP
The Cecilville 15-minute map shows cities and towns, roads, railroads, utilities and energy infrastructure, rivers, creeks, elevation contour lines, public land survey lines, county, state, and other administrative boundaries as they existed at the time of the survey in 1951 and 1955.

A VALUABLE HISTORICAL RECORD
Maps from the 15-minute series for the continental United States are no longer produced or printed by the USGS and original prints are becoming increasingly difficult to find. They are a valuable historical record for an area, as they contain many placenames and features that have been dropped from more recent maps.
