1954 Map of Dwinnell Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Shasta Valley dominates this 1950s landscape, characterized by its complex network of irrigation ditches, springs, and the expansive Dwinnell Reservoir. The map reveals a transition between the volcanic terrain of the Shasta National Forest and the agricultural flats surrounding the Little Shasta River. Local life centers around rural institutions like the Hovey Gulch School and Big Springs School, while the Little Shasta Cem provides a point of interest for genealogists tracing early families of Little Shasta. The era's infrastructure is clearly visible, from the Southern Pacific rail line in the south to the Copco Substation and an Airway Beacon for early aviation. Geologic features like Pluto Cave and Table Rock stand out against the patterned lava flows that define the eastern portion of the quadrangle.
