2022 Map of Mount Fillmore

About this map

Mt Fillmore rises as a central landmark in this high-elevation landscape at the border of Plumas National Forest and Tahoe National Forest. The map documents a rugged interior of the Sierra Nevada where history and recreation intersect, notably through the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trl winding across McRae Ridge and past Mt Etna. Settlements such as Skyhigh and Tamarack Flat are located near steep drainage systems like Studhorse Ravine and Gold Canyon. For genealogists and local historians, the inclusion of Poker Flat and the Poker Flat Cem provides a tangible link to the era of remote mountain habitation and mining. The terrain is deeply incised by the Downie River and its various branches, including the W Br Downie River, and crisscrossed by specialized routes like the Gibraltar Mine Trl and Red Oak Ohv Trl.
