1993 Map of Silva Flat Reservoir

About this map

High-altitude water management and livestock grazing define this corner of the California back country during the late twentieth century. Spanning the boundary of Modoc County and Lassen County, the landscape is dotted with small-scale reservoirs and waterholes essential for maintaining life in the high desert terrain of the Modoc National Forest. Prominent water features like the Silva Flat Reservoir and Coyote Reservoir are joined by numerous smaller catchments, such as Deadhorse Reservoir and Bold Ridges Reservoir. In the northeast, the presence of Hayden Hill and its nearby Cem suggests the area's legacy of prospecting and small-scale settlement. Named springs like Brunselmeier Spring and Ollie Rivis Spring provide glimpses into the individuals who worked this land, while the State Game Refuge indicates the area's twentieth-century role in wildlife conservation.
