2022 Map of Kimshew Point

USGS Topo · Published 2022

About this map

Lassen National Forest and Plumas National Forest meet in this high-elevation landscape, where the border between Butte and Plumas Counties follows the rugged divide. The terrain is characterized by a series of high meadows and significant peaks, including Bald Mtn, Table Mtn, and the namesake Kimshew Point. Water sources are abundant across the ridges, from the secluded Bear Lake in the north to Granite Spring near the center of the sheet. The drainage network is complex, featuring Big Kimshew Creek and Little Kimshew Creek alongside deep incisions like Breakneck Canyon and High Rock Ravine. A legacy of forest access and cattle grazing is evident in the presence of seasonal meadows such as Jones Meadow, Snow Meadow, and Millers Meadow, connected by historic routes like Concow Road and Cow Camp Road.
