What is the true reward of building your career at SPI’s Quincy mill?

When you work here, you aren’t spending your evenings sitting in bumper-to-bumper city traffic or waiting for a two-week vacation just to get outdoors. You get the financial stability of an elite career without sacrificing the freedom of country living.

Imagine clocking out of your shift at the mill. Within 15 minutes, you aren’t staring at brake lights on a crowded freeway. Instead, you are casting a fly-fishing line in the Feather River, unloading the dirt bikes on Mt. Hough, or grabbing dinner with your family in historic downtown Quincy. Out here, your hard work actually pays off in quality of life.

Hometown Roots in Historic Quincy

Trade the city commute for a real hometown. Quincy isn’t just a place to clock in—it’s a hardworking, tight-knit mountain town. After your shift, grab a drink at local spots like The Knook, get your morning roast at a local cafe, and enjoy living in a safe community where people actually look out for their neighbors.

Sunsets, Great Events & World-Class Fishing

You don’t have to wait for a long weekend to hit the water. The legendary Feather River runs right through our canyon, offering world-class trout fishing the exact second you clock out. Prefer a boat? The pristine waters of Bucks Lake are just minutes up the mountain for summer wakeboarding and incredible evening sunsets and events.

1.2 Million Acres of Freedom

This is truck, boots, and side-by-side country. Quincy sits at the base of Mt. Hough, completely surrounded by the Plumas National Forest. With endless dirt logging roads for off-roading, prime hunting grounds, and miles of uncrowded trails for winter snowmobiling, your ultimate outdoor playground starts the moment you leave the mill.
