2021 Map of Observation Peak
USGS Topo · Published 2021About this map
Observation Peak rises as the central landmark in this high-desert region of Lassen County, overlooking the expansive Madeline Plains to the north. The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns and water sources, such as Pothole Spring and several seasonal watercourses including Red Rock Cr and Cold Spring Cr. These water features likely dictated the movement of people and livestock through this arid territory, where the terrain transitions into the deep incision of Buckhorn Canyon in the northeast.
