1963 Map of Dorris Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Modoc National Wildlife Refuge serves as a focal point for this Northeastern California landscape, where high-elevation water management is the defining human footprint. A series of mid-century reservoirs, including the large Dorris Reservoir and Payne Reservoir, are networked across the terrain via creeks and irrigation ditches. The presence of the Old Powerhouse along Pine Creek suggests the historical reliance on these water systems for local energy and agriculture in the Modoc plateau.
