About this map

Double Head Mountain and the surrounding high-desert terrain of Modoc County define this late 20th-century topographic study. The landscape is dominated by the expansive Clear Lake Reservoir, a critical water resource protected by the Clear Lake National Wildlife Refuge. This environment includes notable avian habitats like Bird Island, surrounded by the volcanic landforms of the Clear Lake Hills. To the south, the timbered slopes of the Modoc National Forest provide a sharp contrast to the open water and scrubland. Practical infrastructure is visible in the form of a Dike and a Corral, indicating the managed nature of this wilderness for both conservation and ranching. Smaller seasonal water bodies, including Harvey Lake and Double Head Lake, dot the depressions between the peaks, reflecting the complex drainage patterns of this northern California volcanic plateau.
