2022 Map of Genesee Valley

About this map

The settlement of Genesee and the lush Genesee Valley form the heart of this contemporary landscape, where Indian Creek and Red Clover Cr meet. This survey provides a modern look at the public lands within the Plumas National Forest, highlighting the complex topography of the Northern Sierra region. Local history is anchored by the Davis Family Cem, a small burial ground situated just north of the creek, which speaks to the early ranching and homesteading families who first populated these mountain meadows. The surrounding terrain is defined by prominent elevations such as Wheeler Peak and Kessler Peak, alongside ridges like Peel Ridge and Turner Ridge. Narrow roads like Antelope Rd and the Beckworth Genesee Rd trace the drainage patterns of Hosseikus Cr and Last Chance Cr, maintaining the same essential routes that have connected these high-altitude valleys for generations.
