1957 Map of Pulga

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Western Pacific railroad snakes through the Feather River Canyon, connecting small riverside settlements such as Pulga, Cresta, and Mayaro. This 1957 survey highlights the mid-century development of hydroelectric power along the river, with prominent facilities including the Rock Creek Powerhouse, Bucks Creek Powerhouse, and Cresta Powerhouse punctuating the narrow valley. The surrounding terrain is a mix of the Lassen National Forest and Plumas National Forest, where fire lookouts like the Bear Ranch Hill Lookout and Big Bar Mtn Lookout stand watch over the timbered ridges.
