1963 Map of Dorris Reservoir

About this map

The Modoc National Wildlife Refuge anchors the high desert landscape of this 1963 survey, where water management defines the region's geography. Centered on Dorris Reservoir, the map illustrates an intricate system of high-altitude water storage, including Payne Reservoir, Dannhauser Reservoir, and French Reservoir. These basins, tucked into the canyons and gulches of the Modoc plateau, supported the agricultural and power needs of the era, as evidenced by the Old Powerhouse situated along the drainage of Pine Creek.
