Plumas National Forest encompasses the high-elevation terrain of this region, where the Sierra Nevada's complex drainage systems form distinct alpine basins. The landscape is defined by its wide valleys, including Thompson Valley, McReynolds Valley, and the expansive Red Clover Valley. These meadows and flats are separated by prominent ridges such as Turner Ridge and peaks like Crocker Mountain. Water is central to the area's geography, with Red Clover Creek and Dixie Cr meandering through the flats before entering tighter canyons. The southwestern portion of the map is dominated by the northern reaches of Lake Davis, specifically around Dan Blough Cove. This 2015 update shows the modern road network, including the Beckworth Genesee Rd, providing access for land management and recreation throughout the high country.
