1980 Map of Westwood West

About this map

Lake Almanor and Mountain Meadows Reservoir define this Plumas County landscape, capturing the area's transition into a recreation and timber hub by the late 1970s. The town of Westwood sits at the eastern edge, showing the local High Sch and an isolated Grave near the Western Pacific rail line. The industrial footprint of the era is evident through several borrow pits and a Quarry, while the Westwood Airport and Clear Creek Junction serve as local transport nodes. Along the shoreline, residential and resort developments like Peninsula Village and Hamilton Branch indicate the growing importance of the lakefront. Finer historical details include a Historical Marker north of Clear Creek and the Indian Ole Dam structure at the reservoir's edge, offering specific points of interest for local historians and land use researchers.
