1954 Map of The Whaleback

USGS Topo · Published 1963

About this map

Volcanic peaks and timber industry operations dominate this 1950s landscape in the southern reaches of Butte Valley. The map centers on the massive volcanic shield of The Whaleback and the high summit of Deer Mtn, surrounded by the protected lands of the Klamath National Forest and Shasta National Forest. Transportation through these mountain passes relied on the Southern Pacific line and an extensive network of timber-related infrastructure, including the Logging RR and several specialized sidings.
