1994 Map of Moonlight Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Moonlight Peak and the surrounding high country of the Lassen National Forest and Plumas National Forest define this 1990s-era map of Northern California's Sierra Nevada. The landscape is heavily marked by the region's industrial past, particularly the copper mining history found at Engel Mine and the extensive Tailings and China Tailings along Lights Creek. Evidence of early settlement and resource extraction is visible in landmarks like Shake Cabin and the presence of a Cem tucked into the lower valley near Indian Valley. These features indicate a terrain where commercial enterprise and wilderness management overlap, with old Ditch lines and scattered Spring sites supporting early homesteading or mining operations. The network of service roads, many marked as Closed, shows the transition from active extraction to forest conservation and watershed protection in the late twentieth century.
