History of Cattle Ranching in Lassen County


This mural in Susanville, CA, the county seat of Lassen County, salutes the cattle ranchers who have a long history of ranching in this northeastern California region.

The mural is a collection of images from historical and contemporary photographs and shows local ranchers and cowboys herding cattle, riding in the rodeo, relaxing, and performing other ranching duties. The mural also includes an image of an old butcher shop in Susanville - the end of line for meat in the cattle ranching business.
