This booklet describes the more important points along the Lassen Park Road. To get the most enjoyment from this pamphlet make a leisurely trip—drive slowly. Visitors find it most practical to read about the next point of interest before coming to it, often having someone other than the driver read this aloud while traveling.
In the left hand margin of the text is a series of numbers which correspond to numbered markers along the road marking the point of interest. Explanations follow each number in the text. The fume cloud on the roadside markers points in the direction of the feature. If you are entering via Manzanita Lake Entrance Station, start from the last of this book, and read the numbers in descending sequence.
The mileage shown in parentheses in the center line of the pages indicates the distance between successive points driving either way.
ALWAYS PARK OFF THE PAVEMENT AN AUTO ACCIDENT WILL SPOIL YOUR TRIP
