1954 Map of Shinn Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

Shinn Mountain and the surrounding high desert of Lassen County define this landscape along the California-Nevada border. The map documents a sparsely populated ranching and grazing region where water sources are the primary landmarks, evidenced by numerous named flows such as McKissick Spring, Juniper Jim Spring, and Toms Cabin Spring. The presence of Shinn Ranch and Post Camp suggests the era's seasonal livestock operations, while an isolated Airstrip near Smoke Creek points to the increasing importance of aerial access in remote basin-and-range country.
