1948 Map of Challenge

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Challenge and the surrounding timberlands of the Plumas National Forest define this landscape as it appeared mid-century, just as the regional water infrastructure was undergoing massive expansion. The map detail highlights a transition from early extractive industries to modern water management, evidenced by the purple-tinted revisions showing the rising New Bullards Bar Reservoir and the New Bullards Bar Dam on the North Yuba River.
