1954 Map of Shasta

About this map

Mt Shasta Vabm 14162 dominates this 1950s terrain, revealing a complex landscape of glaciers and volcanic features long before modern development reached the higher elevations. The map documents the intricate glacial systems including Whitney Glacier, Bolam Glacier, and Hotlum Glacier, providing a baseline for the ice extent of the era. To the south, the lumber town of McCloud serves as a hub for regional industry, anchored by a prominent Sawmill and the McCloud River Railroad.
