2018 Map of Chester

About this map

The town of Chester sits at the northwestern edge of Lake Almanor, serving as a central hub where the North Fork Feather River feeds into the reservoir. This 2018 survey illustrates the modern interface between the community and the Lassen National Forest, showing a network of local roads such as Wagon Rd and Settlers Rd that reflect the area's development. The map details the complex shoreline and residential developments of the Almanor Peninsula, including Peninsula Village and the Lake Almanor Country Club. To the north, the terrain transitions into the high country of the Mud Creek Rim and Manzanita Mtn, where resource management tracks like West Bailey Spur wind through the timber. Significant recreational and utility landmarks are also identified, from Catfish Beach and Gould Swamp to the aviation infrastructure at Rogers Field near the town center.
