2021 Map of Belden
USGS Topo · Published 2021About this map
Belden sits at the confluence of the North Fork Feather River and Belden Ravine, marking a point of transition between the Lassen National Forest and Plumas National Forest. This high-altitude landscape is defined by its complex drainage systems, where Chips Cr and Yellow Cr feed into the river valley. The presence of the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trl cutting through the center of the sheet highlights the area's significance for long-distance wilderness travel, passing landmarks like Myrtle Flat and the slopes of Mt Hope. High mountain meadows and flats, such as Milkhouse Flat and Sunflower Flat, dot the higher elevations near Little Grizzly Valley, providing a record of the region's diverse topographical features. Historical travel routes like Humbug Road connect these remote basins, linking points such as Soda Spring and Chips Lake.
