1994 Map of Beckwourth Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1998

About this map

Plumas National Forest and the Beckwourth Ranger District dominate the western portion of this 1990s-era survey, where the Sierra Nevada mountains meet the high desert of the Great Basin. The landscape is defined by the historic passage through Beckwourth Pass, known as the lowest mountain pass in the Sierra Nevada. This corridor facilitates vital transportation links, including the Feather River National Scenic Byway and the Chilcoot Tunnel, which pierce the terrain to connect the Long Valley floor with points west.
