Landmark #675 | Lassen County | Visited: Sept. 26, 2014 | Plaque? YES! 🙂 |
What is it? | A plaque marking a rest stop on the Noble Emigrant Trail to the gold mines! |
What makes it historical? | THE GUIDE SAYS: This meadow, now a city park, was a welcome stopping place on the Noble Emigrant Trail, pioneered by William H. Nobles in 1851 and first used in 1852. Here, emigrants en route to the Northern California mines were able to rest, refresh their stock, and obtain needed provisions at Isaac Roop’s establishment, from which grew the city of Susanville.
OTHER TIDBITS: That pretty well sums it up! |
