Plumas County has enjoyed the awe of Mother Nature this fall with stunning colors from vibrant yellows to scarlets and purples. Now the area is beginning to enjoy the change from golden colors to leaves wafting in the breeze and falling to the ground in preparation for the area’s winter wonderland.

Lots of holiday preparation is going on in the rural towns starting with finding the perfect Christmas tree. Cutting permits for $10 at:

On November 24 join the community of Chester for a tree lighting ceremony, the opening of the ice-skating rink and the annual Merchant’s Night Out. Streets are filled with shoppers enjoying the warmth of bonfires in front of all the stores while having a bite to eat and a holiday libation.

On December 2, the 52nd annual Sparkle in Quincy is reminiscent of a country Christmas with lighted parade, live music and shopping. Learn about more events here.
