About this map

The North Fork Feather River carves a deep canyon through this portion of the Lassen National Forest and Plumas National Forest, serving as a primary corridor for both hydroelectric power and transit in the late 1970s. The Western Pacific Railroad snakes along the canyon walls, threading through numerous tunnels such as Tunnel No 11 and Tunnel No 13 to navigate the steep grade. Industrial infrastructure is prominent along the river, including the Cresta Powerhouse, the Poe Dam, and a Surge Chamber, which converted the river's descent into electrical power.
