1989 Map of Whitinger Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Whitinger Mountain anchors this high-elevation terrain in Lassen County, marking a topographic transition where the slopes of the Modoc National Forest meet the broad basins of the California high desert. The landscape is defined by its distinct water catchment features and arid valleys, including the wide expanse of the Madeline Plains and the enclosed Grasshopper Valley. Water sources, critical in this environment, are clearly noted at Bath Spring and the Said Valley Reservoir, alongside several isolated wells. The presence of a Borrow Pit indicates localized resource extraction within these basins. Linear geological and drainage features like Spooner Trough and the long north-south axis of Dry Valley reveal the complex tectonic and erosional history of this volcanic plateau region during the late twentieth century.
