About this map

Lake Almanor and the Butt Valley Reservoir dominate the high country of the Lassen National Forest in this mid-century survey. The landscape is a complex network of hydroelectric and mining infrastructure, featuring the Prattville Tunnel and numerous gaging stations alongside historic mountain settlements. Along the southern edge, the Western Pacific railroad follows the winding canyon of the North Fork Feather River, connecting small trackside communities like Virgilia, Twain, and Belden.
