Red Bluff, CA

Red Bluff is the county seat of Tehama County, sitting on the upper Sacramento River in Northern California. Its location made it a natural stop on older north-south routes, including the Siskiyou Trail connecting California and Oregon. Today Red Bluff still feels like a gateway town between the Sacramento Valley, the Coast Range, and the mountains farther north. The river, county government, ranching history, and events such as the Red Bluff Round-Up give it a practical, inland Northern California character.
