Gilman Basin, Diamond Mountain, August 1985
Gilman Basin, located on the north flank of Diamond Mountain is the headwaters of Gold Run. It was so named for Jerome A. Gilman, who came to Lassen County in 1879 and became a prosperous sheepman. There is also a Gilman Spring on the north slope of Shaffer Mountain, Gilman Street in Susanville, and the Gilman residence still stands. For a bit of trivia, the Gilman headstone in the Susanville, may be largest in Lassen County.
