The Crane Creek Lumber Company (CCLC) was the first major lumber company to operate in the Modoc National Forest. Its business was located at the mouth of the Crane Creek Canyon. In the 1920s the company moved to Lawson Creek and built the railroad spur in 1928. The spur was built as the result of Crane Creek’s successful bid to the National Forest Service in 1926 for 194 million board feet of timber in the Modoc National Forest’s Fandango Logging Unit.
