2015 Map of Babcock Peak

About this map

Plumas National Forest dominates this high-elevation landscape, where the terrain rises toward Babcock Peak and Papoose Peak. The map records a complex network of alpine hydrology, from the meandering Last Chance Cr to numerous high-country springs such as Poison Creek Spring and Section Fifteen Spring. The human footprint here is defined by resource extraction and early mountain passage, marked by the presence of the Dodge Mine and vestiges of industrial transportation including a Railroad Grade and Railroad Spur.
