About La Porte

La Porte is a tiny, historic Gold Rush community tucked deep in the mountains of Plumas County. With fewer than a hundred year-round residents, it functions mostly as a quiet mountain getaway, where seasonal cabins outnumber full-time households. Life here is peaceful and remote, defined by thick pine forests, heavy winter snowfall, and a rich history stretching back to its 1850s mining roots.
