1950 Map of Kettle Rock

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Plumas National Forest and the high peaks of the Diamond Mts define this 1950s landscape, which reveals a remote timber and mining economy. The Poison Railroad and Clover Valley Lumber Camp No 14 highlight mid-century logging operations, while the presence of the Enge Mine, Lucky S Mine No 1, and Beardsley Mine underscores the region's mineral history. Small outposts such as Genesee and the Lights Creek Guard Sta provide evidence of early forest management and scattered settlement. From the heights of Kettle Rock and Wheeler Peak down to Genesee Valley, the terrain is marked by seasonal infrastructure like the Fant Gathering Corral and isolated shelters including Wemple Cabin and Frazier Cabin.
