1951 Map of Tulelake

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The reclaimed basin of Tule Lake Sump dominates this 1951 topographic study, illustrating a landscape dramatically altered by the Klamath Project's drainage efforts. The town of Tulelake serves as the hub of this agricultural frontier, flanked by the Great Northern and Southern Pacific rail lines that once facilitated the movement of crops from settlements like Stronghold and Newell. The grid-like road system, featuring Golden State Highway and Havilina Road, cuts across the former lakebed toward the rugged volcanic terrain to the south.
