1994 Map of Chilcoot

About this map

The high-altitude Sierra Valley floor meets the foothills of the Plumas National Forest in this mid-1990s record of eastern Plumas County. The landscape is defined by its complex hydrology, featuring numerous flowing wells and a network of drainage channels such as Last Chance Creek, Little Channel, and the Dyson Slough that support the region's ranching heritage. Local settlements are concentrated along the valley edge, specifically the communities of Vinton and Chilcoot, which serve as the primary hubs for this rural expanse. Cultural landmarks like the Vinton Cem and Summit Sch reflect the historical development of these mountain townships. To the north, the terrain transitions into protected lands, including the Little Last Chance Canyon Special Interest Area and the waters of Frenchman Lake. The map also documents resource extraction and land use through labels for a prospect, sandpits, and the established Trosi Canyon Ranch.
