1893 Map of Honey Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1909

About this map

Susanville serves as a central hub in this high-altitude landscape where the Susan River flows eastward toward the Great Basin. This 1880s survey, reprinted at the turn of the century, captures a transitional era of ranching and early settlement across Lassen and Plumas counties. The geography is dominated by large, terminal lake basins, including the expansive Honey Lake and the irregular shoreline of Eagle Lake. To the north, the Madeline Plains stretch toward the Boundary Line, while the southern reaches reveal the productive meadows of Indian Valley. Small settlements and family ranch sites like Janesville, Buntingville, and Amedee are mapped alongside pioneer infrastructure such as the Mill on Gold Run and the isolated Hot Springs near Shaffer Peak. The map illustrates the early connectivity between mountain valleys and the arid flats of the California Nevada border.
