The Nobles Trail is a branch of the California National Historic Trail,
located outside of Susanville, Ca. The California National Historic Trail was
a mid-19th century highway for human movement to lures of gold and farmland in
California. Between 1841 and 1869, more than 200,000 emigrants traversed the
California Trail. The movement of thousands of people and animals along this
trail caused many changes to the lifeways of Native Americans. The trail winds
2,000 miles from Missouri, through Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming, Idaho,
Utah, Nevada, Oregon, to central California.

Visitors can access the portion of Nobles trail from the Smoke Creek Road off
of Highway 395 North just outside of Susanville, Ca. For directions and more
information contact the BLM office in Susanville at 530-257-0456.

## Skedaddle Wilderness Study Area (WSA)

Discover the Skedaddle WSA and Explore Diverse Landscapes and Unique Geology
in Northeastern California and Northwestern Nevada! **For a Map and Brochure
of the BLM Eagle Lake Field Office WSA's click here:****Brochure**

The Skedaddle Wilderness Study Area (WSA) is a remarkable natural region
located primarily in Lassen County, California (99.5%), with a small section
extending into Washoe County, Nevada (0.5%). Spanning roughly 10 by 12 miles,
the WSA encompasses 62,010 acres managed by the Bureau of Land Management
(BLM), along with 1,179 acres of private land distributed across seven
parcels, each ranging from 40 to 640 acres.

**Download the Eagle Lake Field Office Skedaddle WSA Map here:****Map**

**Hunting & OHV Use**

Hunting is a traditional and permitted recreational activity within the
Skedaddle Wilderness Study Area (WSA). The Bureau of Land Management manages
WSAs to preserve wilderness characteristics while allowing uses that do not
impair the area’s suitability for future wilderness designation.

**General Regulations**

  * Hunting is allowed in accordance with California and Nevada state laws, seasons, licensing requirements, and zone designations. 
  * Firearms and archery equipment are permitted; hunters must adhere to federal and state shooting safety restrictions, including **36 CFR** , which prohibits shooting within **150 yards of residences, buildings, campsites, or developed recreation sites**. 

**Motorized and Mechanized Access**

  * M**otorized and mechanized travel is limited to existing designated routes**. Cross‑country travel is prohibited. 
  * Vehicles, including ATVs/UTVs, may not travel off designated open routes to retrieve game.

**Resource Protection**

  * Hunters must avoid disturbing cultural sites, wildlife habitat, and riparian areas. 
  * Do not construct blinds, platforms, or other structures. Permanent installations are not allowed within WSAs. 

## Scenic Landscapes

Situated on the northwestern edge of the arid Great Basin, the area features
dramatic eroded volcanic mountains and expansive desert valleys—remnants of
ancient lake beds. The Skedaddle and Amedee Mountains, found at the heart of
the WSA, dominate the landscape, rising from seasonally dry lake beds and
gentle hills. Elevations range from 4,200 feet to Hot Springs Peak, which
towers at 7,680 feet atop Skedaddle Mountain.

## Geological Wonders

At the center of the WSA lies an eroded volcanic caldera with rugged cliffs,
winding canyons, striking peaks, and upland basins. The higher slopes of the
Skedaddle Mountains are dotted with groves of aspen and large berry shrubs,
especially on northern exposures. Deep canyons support diverse riparian
vegetation, including willows, wild roses, and berry shrubs, while upland
basins host small grassy meadows. Sagebrush and bunch grass cover much of the
landscape, creating a quintessential Great Basin environment.

## Distinctive Features

The northern and eastern boundaries of the WSA are characterized by open
sagebrush flats that gently transition into long toe slopes approaching
Skedaddle Mountain. On the southern and western edges, toe slopes are
blanketed with shrubs and grasses atop alluvial and gravel benches—the visible
remains of Pleistocene Lake Lahontan’s ancient shorelines. These slopes rise
into the steep, rocky terrain of the Amedee Mountains, which are defined by
numerous canyons and ridges to the south and bordered by the nearly vertical,
crumbly volcanic cliffs known as Wendell Cliffs to the west.

Whether you’re seeking striking geological formations, diverse plant life, or
stunning vistas, the Skedaddle Wilderness Study Area offers an unforgettable
experience for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.

### Overview

The Rice Canyon off-highway vehicle (OHV) Open area lies within the
Antelope/Shaffer/Bald Mountain Special Recreation Area (SRMA). The open area
is about 8 miles east of Susanville, California, and consists of 120 acres of
public land managed primarily for open OHV use. All OHV use beyond the open
area is limited to designated routes and trails. The OHV open area is on the
west side of Rice Canyon Road and is recognizable by the entrance sign,
adjacent hill-climb area and large OHV staging and parking area.

Rice Canyon is open to all types of vehicles such as motorcycles, all-terrain
vehicles (ATV), utility terrain vehicles (UTV) and four-wheel drive vehicles.
The area provides excellent motorcycle hill-climb opportunities for the more
experienced rider as well as loop track riding. Rice Canyon is also popular
for training the more novice rider. Visitors can also access the OHV area by
trail off Highway 139 at Antelope Mountain.

Although OHV riders do not have to stay on the trails, some of the more
popular track loops are marked with numbered signs displaying difficulty
rating and recommended vehicle type. The trails run both ways, so anticipate
users riding in both directions.

The main trailhead has facilities such as BBQs and picnic tables, loading
ramps, a vault toilet facility. Additional improvements will continue
including construction of new trails and rock crawling areas. For comments or
ideas for improvements to the Rice Canyon Open OHV area, contact the BLM Eagle
Lake Recreation Planner at 530-252-5303.

See more photos of the Rice Canyon OHV Area.

Funding for the area has been through the California State Parks OHV green
sticker grant program. For more information or to review current and past

**Five Springs Wilderness Study Area (WSA)**

The Five Springs WSA is located primarily in Lassen County, California (97%),
with a small portion (3%) in Washoe County, Nevada. The WSA contains 49, 206
acres of BLM-administered land and 1,195 acres of private land that is located
in eight parcels, ranging in size from 40 to 640 acres. Surface owners own all
subsurface mineral rights beneath their holdings.

The WSA is located on the western edge of the arid Great Basin and is
characterized by eroded volcanic mountains. Five Springs Mountain, Cherry
Mountain, and Rush Creek Mountain are, ridge like mountains with multiple high
points. Numerous broad, open canyons are cut into the three prominent ridges
that make up the core of the relief in the WSA. Elevations range from 4,500 to
6,300 feet. Stony and Rush Creeks are mostly perennial creeks originating in
the unit. Riparian vegetation is dense in parts of Rush Creek and slight to
moderately dense in Stony Creek. Other than willows in the two creek bottoms
and at springs, vegetation throughout the WSA is limited to sagebrush and
associated shrubs and grasses.

The Tunnison Mountain WSA is located in Lassen County, California. The WSA
contains 19,884 acres of BLM-administered land and 553 acres of private land
that is located in 13 parcels, varying in size from 10 to 160 acres. The WSA
is located on the eastern edge of the transition area between the wooded
slopes of the Cascade Range and the western edge of the more arid Great Basin.
It is approximately 3.5 miles wide by 10 miles long. Elevations vary from
4,200 to 6,400 feet. Three topographical features dominate the WSA: Horse Lake
Mountain, a 5.5-mile-long north-south ridge in the northern half of the WSA;
Tunnison Mountain, a 4.5-mile-long northwest-southeast ridge in the southern
half of the WSA; and Willow Creek Canyon, a 50- to 200-foot-deep canyon that
flows 6.5 miles west to east through the WSA. Ponderosa and Jeffery pines grow
in the southern end of the WSA south of Willow Creek, while the majority of
the WSA is dominated by shrubs, grasses, and scattered juniper. Vegetation
also includes isolated patches of mountain mahogany at the higher elevations.
The riparian vegetation along Willow Creek includes sedges, grasses, and
occasional willows.
