About this map

Lassen Volcanic National Park dominates the northern half of this landscape, centered on the high volcanic peak of Mt Harkness. The terrain is defined by a dense network of mountain lakes, including the expansive Juniper Lake and smaller bodies like Crystal Lake and Horseshoe Lake. To the south, the land transitions into the Lassen National Forest, where the topography drops into the Warner Valley.

Evidence of the area's geological past is visible in features like the Crater Butte and Red Cinder Cone. For the modern visitor and historian, the map meticulously traces the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail as it winds past Domingo Lake and the Grassy Swale. Local points of interest such as the Stump Ranch and the Meadow Strip provide specific geographic markers within the vast mountain wilderness.
