  STS068-173-125 Lake Almanor and Lake Oroville, California, U.S.A. October 1994
The timber lands of Plumas National Forest in the northern Sierra Nevada Mountains are discernible in this low-oblique, northeast-looking photograph. Near the top left, Lake Almanor is visible. Between the bottom left and center of the photograph appears elongated Lake Oroville, fed by the Feather River's north, middle, and south forks, which flow generally westward from the high mountains. Part of the Sacramento Valley is visible near the bottom left of the photograph.
