Valjean Hills

The Valjean Hills are a rugged, mid-elevation mountain range located in central California. Spanning across 150 square miles, the range is characterized by steep, rocky slopes, deep canyons, and scattered alpine lakes and meadows. The terrain varies from dense coniferous forests at lower elevations to sparse, wind-swept alpine environments near the summits. The Valjean Hills are a part of the larger Cascade mountain system but remain relatively isolated and lesser-known compared to their more famous neighbors to the north.
