1990 Map of Hambone

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Shasta National Forest dominates this northern California landscape, centered on the logging and transport nexus of Hambone. The map reflects a landscape shaped by industrial forestry and timber management in the late 20th century. Traces of historical logging infrastructure are evident through features like the Old Railroad Grade and the Railroad Grade, indicating how timber was once moved through these hills. Higher elevations are marked by the Bear Lookout atop Bear Mountain and the prominent Hambone Butte. Small settlements and camps like Slagger and the curious Car A (Site) suggest localized activity, while scattered water sources such as White Deer Well, Sand Flat Well, and Mad Well supported operations across the drier upland terrain. The presence of a Cinder Pit and Borrow Pit further points to the maintenance of the forest road network that replaced the rails.
