2015 Map of Antelope Valley

About this map

Loyalton sits at the edge of the expansive Sierra Valley, where the high desert floor meets the northern reaches of the Tahoe National Forest. This 2015 survey illustrates a landscape defined by the transition from ranching flats to timbered ridges, with the Plumas and Sierra county line bisecting the northern portion of the quadrangle. The topography reveals significant water management and land use patterns, from the Palen Reservoir tucked into the southern hills to the drainage of Dyson Slough in the north. A network of rural routes such as Filippini Rd and Bar One Ranch Rd connect scattered homesteads and livestock operations across Antelope Valley. Natural landmarks like Lombardi Point and Rice Hill provide geographic context for the complex terrain surrounding the canyon systems of the national forest.
