1957 Map of Prospect Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The volcanic wilderness of northeastern California is laid bare in this late 1950s survey, dominated by the massive presence of Prospect Peak and the geological curiosities of Lassen Volcanic National Park. The landscape is a complex map of ancient activity, featuring the Fantastic Lava Beds, the Painted Dunes, and the sharp profile of Cinder Cone near the shores of Butte Lake. These features provide a stark backdrop to the human history of the region, specifically where the Emigrant Trail and Noble Emigrant Trail cross the terrain.
