Loomis Museum
B. F. Loomis took advantage of Lassen Peak's pyrotechnics during the 1914-15 period of activity. He photographed and led groups to the area, close enough to appreciate the spectacle. He promoted the founding of the national park and moved to Manzanita Lake in full view of Lassen Peak. He constructed a museum to house his artifacts, and developed a seismograph to record earth movements around the peak. The Loomis house is now a park ranger station. The complex stands just inside the northwest entrance to Lassen Volcanic National Park.
