1993 Map of Ambrose

About this map

Modoc National Forest encompasses the high country shown in this late 20th-century survey, a landscape defined by an extensive system of water management and livestock infrastructure. The small settlement of Ambrose sits at the southwestern edge of the quadrangle, serving as a rare point of human habitation in a region dominated by terrain features like Rail Mountain and Blacks Canyon. This area reflects the mid-century intensification of forest and range management, where numerous basins and tanks were developed to support activities across the forest floor.
