1980 Map of Pegleg Mountain

About this map

McCoy Flat Reservoir and Hog Flat Reservoir dominate this high-elevation landscape within the Lassen National Forest. The map captures a transition in mountain infrastructure, where the Western Pacific railroad tracks and the Old Railroad Grade illustrate the historic movement of timber and passengers through the northern Sierras. Near Westwood Junction, the confluence of rail lines and water management features like the Gaging Station on the Susan River point to the region's managed wilderness character. Terrain features like Pegleg Mtn, topped with a Lookout Tower, and Chaparral Hill rise above the flats and basins. Evidence of local industry is scattered across the quadrant in the form of a Cinder Pit, Borrow Pit, and various Quarries, marking the physical extraction required to maintain the roads and rail beds in this demanding environment.
