1963 Map of Little Juniper Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Little Juniper Reservoir and the high sagebrush and juniper country of the northern Sierra Nevada foothills dominate this 1963 survey of Modoc County. The landscape is defined by its water management for ranching and agriculture, centered on the Little Juniper Reservoir with its elevation 4580 spillway and the Flournoy Reservoir to the south. The drainage network is complex, featuring Fitzhugh Creek, Big Juniper Creek, and the South Fork Pit River which cuts through the northeastern corner. This era shows a rugged cattle-country infrastructure, where travel was limited to numerous jeep trails connecting isolated points like Nelson Springs and Wall Springs. Portions of the Modoc National Forest are visible along the eastern boundary, illustrating the transition from open grazing land to protected timber territory.
