2012 Map of Beckwourth Pass
USGS Topo · Published 2012About this map
Beckwourth Pass serves as a critical geographic marker in this high-altitude corridor of Plumas County, where the Sierra Nevada meets the Great Basin. This 2012 survey captures a landscape defined by its transit history and sparse ranching settlements. The intersection of major mountain routes is anchored by Reno Junction and Hallelujah Junction, points that have long facilitated movement between California and Nevada. The infrastructure of the region is further evidenced by the Chilcoot Tunnel and the nearby Summit, indicating the significant engineering required to traverse this portion of the range.
