I was reading about Honey Lake and its history (by our Tim Purdy) and was wondering if anyone knows anything about the lake in 1906 when the San Francisco Earthquake hit. My husband said his dad (who was the CDF Ranger for Lassen and Modoc counties in the 50's) had told him that during the earthquake the lake completely drained. Does anyone know anything about this? Molly

The 1906 earthquake was hardly felt in the Honey Lake Valley. An 1889 earthquake, did drop the level of Eagle Lake by two feet! And a 1950 earthquake near Honey Lake caused a 10 foot deep depression in the ground east of Herlong.
