§ 10825 Placer County Game Refuge

This law draws the exact lines for Game Refuge 1I in Placer County, using roads, creeks, ridges and survey sections to show where the refuge starts and ends.

Key Takeaways

•The statute defines Game Refuge 1I by naming specific roads, streams, ridges and survey sections.
•Anything inside those lines is part of the refuge and subject to the refuge’s rules (e.g., no hunting).
•The boundary description is legal and fixed; you must follow it exactly when deciding where you can or cannot do certain activities.

Example

A hunter wants to hunt near the French Meadows‑Georgetown Road.

Because the law lists the French Meadows‑Georgetown Road as part of the refuge boundary, that spot is inside Game Refuge 1I, so hunting there would be illegal.

The following constitutes Game Refuge 1I: All that area within the County of Placer within the following boundaries: Beginning at a point in Sec. 17, T. 14 N., R. 14 E., M.D.M., where the French House-Big Meadows Road intersects the South Fork of Long Canyon Creek; thence following southwesterly along said road to its intersection with the French Meadows-Georgetown Road near the section line between Secs. 22 and 23, T. 14 N., R. 13 E., thence southwesterly along the French Meadows-Georgetown Road where it intersects an unnamed tributary to the North Fork of Long Canyon Creek near the section line between Secs. 22 and 27, T. 14 N., R. 13 E.; thence northwesterly along said tributary to French House Site (near the center of Sec. 22, T. 14 N., R. 13 E.); thence northwesterly along the French House-Red Star Mine Jeep Road in Secs. 22 and 15, T. 14 N., R. 13 E., to its intersection with the Middle Fork of the American River, in Sec. 15, T. 14 N., R. 13 E.; thence northeasterly along the Middle Fork of the American River, to its intersection with the southern boundary of Sec. 35, T. 15 N., R. 13 E., thence due north on a line through the center of Sec. 35 to an intersection with the summit of Red Star Ridge in Sec. 26, T. 15 N., R. 13 E. (this being the divide between Duncan Creek and the Middle Fork of the American River); thence northeasterly following the summit of Red Star Ridge to a point in Sec. 4, T. 15 N., R. 14 E. where said ridge intersects the main Foresthill Divide between the North Fork of the American River and the Middle Fork of the American River; thence easterly along the summit of said divide to Needle Peak; thence southerly following the summit of the divide to Mt. Mildred; thence southwesterly following the summit of the divide between Gray Horse Creek and the Middle Fork of the American River to its intersection with the Big Meadows-Gray Horse Valley Trail (near the middle of Sec. 5, T. 14 N., R. 14 E.); thence following said trail to the South Fork of Long Canyon Creek (near the middle of Sec. 9, T. 14 N., R. 14 E.); thence southwesterly down the South Fork Long Canyon Creek to the point of beginning. (Amended by Stats. 2023, Ch. 132, Sec. 190. (AB 1760) Effective January 1, 2024.)
