About this map

Burney and the surrounding Shasta County backcountry appear in this 1935 survey as a landscape shaped by hydroelectric development and timber. The map documents early industrial infrastructure along the Pit River, specifically detailing Hat Creek Power House No 1 and its companion facilities, which were critical to Northern California's power grid. Family names are etched into the terrain through numerous ranches like the Fillmore and Nunnen ranch sites, while the social fabric of the era is preserved in the locations of the Pineland and Inwood schools.
