Description
Mountain-view country at 6,308 feet in California Pines Unit 3, off Remington Road, with the Warner Mountains running across the eastern horizon and pine timber framing every direction. Cool summer nights, snowy winter mornings, and dark skies that make stargazing a hobby. Alturas is about 25 minutes north for fuel and a hot meal; Modoc National Wildlife Refuge is half an hour south for waterfowl, and the South Warner Wilderness is an easy hour for backpacking and elk hunting. Modoc County Agricultural Residential zoning supports a single-family home, modular, manufactured, mobile, or tiny home, plus RV camping while you build, hunting, and tent camping. Off-grid setup — drill a well, install septic, run solar, wind, or propane. California Pines POA covers road maintenance. Reach out for the GPS pin.Corner GPS Coordinates:NW: 41.286907, -120.793707NE: 41.286902, -120.792587SE: 41.286518, -120.792594SW: 41.286584, -120.793716
