About this map

Old Station serves as the central hub of this 2015 topographic study within the Lassen National Forest. The landscape is defined by volcanic features and significant relief, ranging from the flat expanses of McElroy Flat and Plum Valley to the prominent volcanic cones of Potato Butte and Little Potato Butte. The water network is anchored by Hat Creek, which flows past the settlement and is supported by local water sources like Big Spring and Baker Spring.

Modern recreation and wilderness preservation are evident throughout the quadrangle. The Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail winds through the eastern portion of the map, crossing paths with established infrastructure like Ca 44 and Ca 89. Notable landmarks such as the Big Spring Heliport and the Hat Creek Campground point to the area's continued use as a base for forest management and outdoor tourism, while curiosities like Suicide Cabin provide local place-name interest for historians.
