About this map

Clearlake and its neighboring communities are depicted here during a period of significant late-twentieth-century development along the southeastern shores of Clear Lake. The map illustrates the expansion of Clearlake Highlands and Clearlake Park, where a dense network of residential streets like Austin Ave and Peacock Dr meet the waterfront. This growth is juxtaposed with the preservation of Anderson Marsh State Historical Park, which protects the wetlands and flats near Slater Island.

Industry and recreation define the interior landscape, from the extractive history of the Sulphur Bank and various quarries to the leisure destinations of Salminas Resort and Mt Hannah Lodge in the southern hills. Geologic and geothermal activity is implied by the presence of Borax Lake and the Konocti Conservation Camp. The terrain transitions from the aquatic margins of Konocti Bay to the high ground of Seigler Mtn, showing a complex mix of lakeside living and upland resource management.
