A case study in georeferencing with ArcGIS 10.3.1

I did georeferencing with old black and white aerial photos a long time ago. Around 2004, so ArcGIS 8.2.

I am trying it with a paper map today, just for kicks. It's a Northern California bicycle map, and it looks almost hand drawn, so I am curious how it will align. I am scanning the Eureka/Arcata area.

Sample image

Scanner settings: full color, 600 DPI. TIFF format.

Here is a scaled down version of the scan for your edification. File:Eurekamap.png
