1972 Map of Reconnaissance Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Middle Fork Feather River meanders through the broad floor of Sierra Valley Channels, a hydrologically complex landscape defined by the confluence of Last Chance Creek and Little Last Chance Creek. This 1972 survey captures a rural landscape where the Western Pacific railroad serves the small settlements of Beckwourth and Hawley. The contrast between the flat valley floor and the surrounding high country is sharp, with the Plumas National Forest rising to prominent heights at Reconnaissance Peak and the distinctive formation of The Buttes.
