Roop's Fort

Built in July 1854 by Isaac N. Roop. First called Roop's House, and used as stopping place by emigrant trains. It was the locale of the "sagebrush war" fought in 1863 between Plumas County and Lassen County citizens.

Marker can be reached from North Weatherlow Street, on the right when traveling north.
