Keddie Ridge in Plumas County California


When I was young my dad used to load us up in the jeep and drive us all over Plumas County showing us the places he had logged and helped to build logging roads.  Now most of the mountains nearby have old logging roads that make it possible to get out and into nature.

Yesterday I took a drive up to Keddie Ridge on one of the old dirt roads that we used to frequent.  What a beautiful place and very few see it from this vantage point.


 Looking across Keddie Ridge down to Indian Valley where smoke still lingers 
from last weeks lightning fires on Mount Huff. 





 Near the top at "the saddle" on Keddie. 



 The sound of the wind in the trees at the top of a mountain is . 









 Berries are out and  manzanita bushes are everywhere.
