1991 Map of Upper Lake

About this map

Upper Lake (Pomo) Rancheria and Robinson Rancheria are central landmarks in this northern California valley landscape, where the flatlands of Tule Lake meet the rising slopes of the Mendocino National Forest. The map documents a complex cultural and historical layer, including the Bloody Island Massacre Historical Marker near Bloody Island and the Witter Springs P O hub. To the west, the resort history of the region is evident at Saratoga Springs, while the institutional life of the valley is anchored by Union High Sch and the Glen Eden Sch. High points like Hunter Point Lookout and Sleeper Peak overlook the drainage systems of Middle Creek and Bachelor Creek, showing a landscape defined by the transition from agricultural valley floor to protected timberlands.
