1972 Map of Crocker Mtn

About this map

Lake Davis and the high elevations of the Plumas National Forest dominate this Sierra Nevada landscape in the early 1970s. The map captures a moment when the recently constructed Grizzly Valley Dam and its reservoir are new features on the terrain, complete with the Grizzly Campground and Grasshopper Flat Campground established for recreation. The California Department of Water Resources contributed data for this survey, reflecting the mid-century focus on water management in Plumas County.
