About this map

Lassen Volcanic National Park dominates the high country of this mid-1950s survey, centered on the volcanic peak of Lassen Peak and the surrounding volcanic terrain of Magee Peak and Brokeoff Mountain. The map illustrates a landscape shaped by timber, water, and mid-century logistics, from the industrial presence of the Sierra Ordinance Depot near Herlong to the sprawling waters of Lake Almanor. Settlement patterns follow the lowlands and valleys, with Susanville serving as a hub for the eastern edge of the timbered Sierra Nevada foothills.
