2015 Map of Anderson Mountain

About this map

Anderson Mountain dominates the northern skyline of this high-desert landscape in Lassen County, where the terrain drops sharply toward the expansive Madeline Plains. The settlement of Brockman sits along the eastern edge of the quadrangle, situated near the intersection of several local thoroughfares including Swan Rd and Brockman Rd. A network of rural roads with distinctive avian and wildlife names, such as Nightowl, Mallard Dr, Parakeet, and Coyote, suggests a modern subdivision of the land into large rural parcels or recreational plots. The western slopes are carved by Anderson Canyon, while Ninemile Point stands as a prominent topographical feature overlooking the central flats. This survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents the intersection of public land survey sections across Townships 35, 36, and 37 North, illustrating the grid-based development typical of this part of northeastern California.
