Above Auburn it widens out into the two divides lying between the Bear River and the Middle Fork of the American River. These are known as the Dutch Flat or Railroad Divide, and the Forest Hill Divide. The southwestern portion is more regular in shape than the part just described.
Stran 183 - A great central valley, having its longer axis in a direction northwest and southeast — that is, parallel with the general trend of the coast, is inclosed and bordered by the Sierra Nevada mountains on the east, and the Coast Range on the west. The northern end of the valley is formed by the junction of these two mountain ranges near Shasta City (latitude 40° 35'), and the southern by the union of the same, near Tejon Pass (latitude 35°).

Stran 106 - Within its 4000 square miles of territory — an area almost as large as the State of Connecticut — may be found the climate and scenery of almost every part of the State, from the cool and breezy seashore to the warm inland plains and bracing mountain tops.

Corn is irrigated in some localities, being a summer crop, but is successfully grown in many places without irrigation.

Stran 119 - ... side are water marks, which make it seem highly probable that the waters were once almost a thousand feet above their present elevation, spreading out over the plains to the east to form a great inland sea.

Owens River in the south, which takes its rise in a high peak in the Sierra, Mount Kitten, and Walkers River in the north, Acres in Trees.
Stran 132 - It is about 100 miles long and of varying widths, from 10 to 30 miles, the course and distance being defined by the course of the rivers which mark its boundaries. It extends from about 8 miles from the Sacramento River to the summit of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Just above Auburn, between the Bear and American rivers, the county is very narrow, being about 8 miles across.
Stran 114 - Garvin mine, one on the east side and the other on the west side of a little branch which flows north into Trough Camp branch.
Stran 130 - ... named Lugos, who once owned the whole of the San Bernardino valley, cultivating it chiefly by Indian labor. This mission stands about ten miles southeast of the old town of San Bernardino. The county is bounded on the north by Inyo county, and the State of Nevada ; on the east by the Colorado river ; on the south, by San Diego county and on the west, by Kern and Los Angeles counties. The Sierra Nevada makes a short, easterly curvature on the northwest of this county, leaving a tract of wild desert...
Stran 81 - Created March 11, 1891. This county was created out of the northern portion of Colusa County, and derived its name from Dr. Hugh J. Glenn, who, during his lifetime, was the largest wheat farmer in the State, and a man of great prominence in political and commercial life in California.
