1950 Map of Mt Dome

About this map

The high desert terrain of the Lava Beds National Monument and the extensive water management systems of the Lower Klamath Lake Sump define this northern California border region. Situated at the edge of the Oregon state line, the landscape is marked by unique geologic and cultural sites, including Captain Jacks Stronghold and the Devils Homestead lava flow. The presence of the Southern Pacific railroad and irrigation infrastructure like the Tulelake Tunnel reflect the mid-century agricultural development of the Tule Lake basin.
