2015 Map of Bullard Lake

About this map

Lassen National Forest terrain dominates this high-altitude landscape in Lassen County, defined by a network of seasonal water sources and named depressions. The hydrology is centered around Big Jack Lake and Bullard Lake, which occupy natural basins alongside Twin Lakes and Gordon Lake. Human presence is marked by historic transit corridors like Board Cabin and Cleghorn Rd, indicating the area's legacy of timber management and seasonal grazing. Dramatic geological features such as Lava Peak and the Stanford Trough provide significant elevation changes, creating distinct ecological zones like Mosquito Flat and Sheep Valley. This survey captures the complex water-management infrastructure necessary for high-desert ranching and forest maintenance, including the W Gordon Well and Pat Morris Spring, which have long served as vital points in this arid environment.
