About this map

Lava Beds National Monument dominates the western portion of this landscape, where volcanic terrain meets the managed waters of the Tule Lake basin. The map illustrates a highly engineered environment where the Tule Lake National Wildlife Refuge and Modoc National Forest converge. Agriculture and industry are concentrated along the eastern edge, marked by the Hannchen Grain Elevator and Kandra Grain Elevator, reflecting the region's reliance on grain production and rail transport via the Tlnwr. Notable landmarks like Prisoners Rock and the historically significant Captain Jacks Stronghold stand out against the backdrop of Tule Lake and The Peninsula. This 1980s data shows the precise management of the water table, including a network of levees and several Pumping Stations that maintain The Panhandle and surrounding refuge lands.
