About location

The landscape around Susanville is a dry, open basin of northeastern California, which has shaped both the built environment and local life. Set beside the Susan River at the northern edge of Honey Lake Valley, the city is framed by broad rangeland and the forested volcanic country of the southern Cascades. Susanville is the county seat of Lassen County and the main service centre for a large, sparsely settled part of the state. Its streets connect established residential districts, commercial corridors and highways leading toward Nevada, the Sierra Nevada and Oregon. Lassen National Forest and Lassen Volcanic National Park place the town within a region of forests, lava plateaus and geothermal features. The settlement grew from the mid-19th-century community founded by Isaac Roop.

California’s cities have exerted worldwide influence through film, technology, agriculture, and music; Hollywood remains an enduring symbol of the American screen industry. Its scale means climates and local character can change dramatically from one county to the next. Continue through nearby webcams to explore different parts of California.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
