Warner MountainsThe Warner Mountains are a short mountain range in northeastern California and extending into south central Oregon in the United States. The range runs for approximately 60 mi (100 km) north-south primarily in eastern Modoc County, California east of Alturas, California. The highest peak in the range is Eagle Peak with an elevation of 9892 ft (3016 m). The range is in the arid sparsely-populated northeastern corner of California, approximately 15 mi (24 km) west of the Nevada border and marks the western edge of the Great Basin. The eastern side of the range is Surprise Valley, an enclosed basin containing Upper, Middle, and Lower Alkali lakes along the California-Nevada border. The western side of the range is a ranching region drained by the forks of the Pit River, a tributary of the Sacramento River. Goose Lake is located along the northwest end of the range, straddling the California-Oregon border. Most of the range is part of the Modoc National Forest. The southern portion of the range, including Eagle Peak, is part of the South Warner Wilderness. The Fort Bidwell Indian Reservation is located in the northern end of the range west of Goose Lake.
