Why is the town called Red Bluff? It's as flat as a pancake with no obvious bluff and I'm not sure it's particularly red, either. 155.53.72.92 (talk) 17:38, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

There are bluffs along the Sacramento River near the city. Much of the soil in the area is reddish due to iron oxides. Jswhitten (talk) 18:57, 1 April 2008 (UTC)
