2021 Map of Beckwourth Pass

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Beckwourth Pass serves as a critical geographic marker in this high-altitude landscape where the Sierra Nevada meets the Great Basin. This recent survey captures the sparse settlement patterns along the California and Nevada border, anchored by the crossroads of Hallelujah Junction and Reno Junction. The terrain is defined by the sharp transition from the wooded slopes of the Plumas National Forest to the open expanses of Upper Long Valley and the drainage of Long Valley Cr. Local road networks like Scott Rd and Hallelujah Dr reflect the area's continued use as a transit corridor, while features like Petersen Mtn and Yellow Rock dominate the eastern skyline. For researchers, the map provides precise locations for modern rural developments and the persistent natural landmarks that have guided travelers through this pass for generations.
