1985 Map of Childs Meadows

About this map

Childs Meadows serves as a central landmark in this high-elevation landscape where the Tehama Co Plumas Co border cuts through the northern timberlands. The terrain is defined by its complex hydrology, with the North Arm and South Arm feeding into Rice Creek, while Wilson Lake sits tucked between the slopes of Cattle Mountain and Ice Cave Mountain. The map reveals a land utilized for both recreation and early habitation, evidenced by the Gurnsey Creek Campground and the isolated Smith Cabin near Deer Creek Meadows. Small-scale industrial activity is marked by a Borrow Pit and Gravel Pit, while a Telephone Cable corridor suggests the early infrastructure traversing the Lassen Lost Creek National Forest. Notable geographic curiosities like the Ice Cave and Fire Mountain provide specific points of interest for those studying the volcanic and geological character of this part of Northern California.
