6 1/2 mi S 4 3/4 mi W Susanville, 6400+ ft. Lassen Co. Calif.
From Susanville I could see to the SE a range with a good bit of snow on top and lots of bare ground.
After getting lost several times in the valley, I found
a road over Diamond Mt. - road eventually goes to
Westwood. Finally established a camp about 7 p.m.,
about 1/4 mi. down (E) from the summit. Forest here
is White Spruce and Yellow Pine, with many
good sized trees and good replacement in the
clearings. On top there is an extensive bare
area, apparently natural. This is covered by
Willow and grass, rather sparse. On the N side
of the highest part there is sage brush. There are
patches of snow in gulles on the N facing slopes.
