About this map

Old Station serves as a central point in this northern California landscape, positioned at the junction of Ca 89 and Ca 44. The area is defined by its volcanic topography and water features, situated within the Lassen National Forest. To the east, the dramatic rise of the Hat Creek Rim dominates the horizon, while the Hat Creek Valley provides a level floor for the northward-flowing Hat Creek.

Tracing the passage of travelers through this terrain, the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trail winds along the rim and through the high timber. The map details several smaller water bodies like Plum Valley Reservoir and Mud Lake, alongside curiosity-inducing landmarks such as Suicide Cabin and the Big Spr Heliport. Volcanic features are prominent throughout, from the heights of Sugarloaf Peak to the distinct profiles of Potato Butte and Little Potato Butte.
