About this map

The North Fork Feather River carves a deep path through this section of the Sierra Nevada foothills, where the settlements of Pulga, Cresta, and Mayaro line its banks. The map reflects a landscape defined by dramatic elevation changes, from the riverbed to prominent summits like Flea Mtn and Hungary Hunt Peak. This area is shared between the Lassen National Forest and Plumas National Forest, with the boundary between Plumas and Butte counties crossing the northern reaches near Arch Rock.

Evidence of the region's rugged accessibility is found in the network of forest roads and trails, including the Ishi Trl and Yana Trl. Along the river, localized points such as Bardees Bar and Fish Camp Flat suggest historical mining or recreational sites. The inclusion of Poe in the southern portion of the sheet further illustrates the string of small rail or utility-related outposts that historically supported infrastructure in the steep canyon environment.
