Geography

It was located 5 miles (8.0 km) west-northwest of Berry Creek on the North Fork of the Feather River,[2] at an elevation of 902 feet (275 m). It is now flooded by Lake Oroville.[3]

Climate

This region experiences warm (but not hot) and dry summers, with no average monthly temperatures above 71.6 °F. According to the Köppen Climate Classification system, Las Plumas has a warm-summer Mediterranean climate, abbreviated "Csb" on climate maps.[4]

History

A post office operated in Las Plumas from 1908 to 1967, with a closure from 1909 to 1912.[3] Its location on the Feather River gave the place its translated into Spanish name.[3] The town was located in the Feather River canyon, but was evacuated and flooded when Oroville Dam was built. Most former residents now live in nearby Oroville.
