About Sagehen Hills

The Sagehen Hills are a small but rugged mountain range located in the northeastern corner of California, near the Nevada border. The range is characterized by steep, rocky terrain with numerous craggy peaks and ridges. The landscape is dominated by high-altitude meadows, subalpine forests, and exposed granite formations. Extensive glacial activity has carved deep valleys and cirques throughout the range, creating a dramatic and scenic backdrop for outdoor recreation.
