Jamison Creek, running fast and clear through the park, is alive with half-pound rainbow and brook trout. Campers looking for more strenuous recreation backpack into lake-dotted Plumas National Forest, which offers good deer hunting; black bears, cougars, mountain lions and bobcats can also be seen there...
