About this map

Lassen National Forest terrain dominates this 1952 topographic study, showcasing a landscape defined by deep canyons and prominent volcanic features. The survey centers on Campbell Mound, a distinctive landmark rising between the various branches of Campbell Creek and Singer Creek. These drainage systems, including the North Fork and South Fork of Deer Creek, illustrate the complex hydrology of the Tehama and Butte county line.

Remote outposts like Baccala Cabin and Franks Cabin suggest the area's history of seasonal grazing or forest management. Further south, the map details the rising elevations of Sugarloaf Mountain and Steamboat Point, alongside the timbered reaches of Burroughs Pinery. The intricate network of Trails and Jeep Trails provides a clear view of how this rugged backcountry was accessed before modern development reached the higher elevations of Keefer Ridge.
