1994 Map of Pulga

About this map

The Feather River North Fork carves a deep path through the overlapping boundaries of the Lassen National Forest and the Plumas National Forest in this 1990s revision. The canyon floor is a corridor of infrastructure, where the Scenic Byway and a series of railroad tunnels, including Tunnel No 13 and Tunnel No 10, trace the river's edge. This era shows a landscape heavily managed for power and transport, evidenced by the Poe Dam, Cresta Powerhouse, and the Mill Creek Cal-Trans Station. Small settlements and isolated outposts like Pulga, Mayaro, and the Johnson Cabin remain tucked into the steep drainages of Concow Creek and Camp Creek. High points like Flea Mountain and Big Bar Mtn overlook the complex network of forest roads, including Rim Road and Bardee Road, that navigate the transition between Butte and Plumas counties.
