About this map

Gallatin Peak rises as a prominent landmark within the Lassen National Forest, anchoring a landscape defined by high-elevation meadows and remote volcanic terrain. The area is characterized by significant topographic relief, with Mahogany Peak and Greens Peak overlooking a network of seasonal water bodies and drainage basins. Of particular interest to those studying the hydrology and land use of the region are the various meadows and basins such as Murrers Upper Meadow and Deans Meadow, which historically supported seasonal grazing and forest management activities.

Water management is evident through features like the Round Valley Reservoir and Mahogany Lake, while the western edge of the sheet touches the shoreline of Eagle Lake at Miners Point. This 2018 survey detail provides a clear look at the forest road network, including Forest Rte 31N02, which facilitates access through Willow Creek Valley. The map serves as a primary reference for the intricate township and range boundaries that organized this portion of Lassen County.
