About this map

Lake Almanor dominates the western half of this landscape, its shoreline dotted with recreational sites like the Eastshore Picnic Area and Fox Farm Campground. The community of Canyondam sits at the southern end of the lake, serving as a hub where the Western Pacific railroad tracks pass near an Intake Tower and Substation. This era shows a heavily managed forest and industrial environment, with the boundary between Lassen National Forest and Plumas National Forest cutting across the mountain ridges.
