==Natural features==
The park is in the high Sierra Nevada mountain range at an elevation of around . It is covered in mixed coniferous forest with tree species such as Jeffrey pine (''Pinus jeffreyi''), white fir (''Abies concolor''), Sierra lodgepole pine (''Pinus contorta'' ssp. ''murrayana''), California incense cedar (''Calocedrus decurrens''), sugar pine (''Pinus lambertiana''), and red fir (''Abies magnifica'').〔 Black cottonwood (''Populus trichocarpa'') and quaking aspen (''Populus tremuloides'') are part of the local fall foliage display.〔(General Creek Trail. ) California Department of Parks and Recreation.〕 This forest is not pristine, having been subjected to heavy logging in the late 1800s.〔 Wood was used by miners in the Comstock Lode〔 and other great mineral deposits. Long-term fire suppression and periods of drought and bark beetle infestation have altered the fire regime. Controlled burns are used to help prevent very destructive wildfires.〔
The park is bisected by General Creek, a stream about 15 kilometers long which runs from the Desolation Wilderness into Lake Tahoe.〔 On the General Creek Trail along the stream there are lakes, mountain meadows with wildflowers, and two large moraines. The trail leaves the park and enters Eldorado National Forest.〔
In the summer, the high temperature is about and the low is near . Winter highs reach about 40 °F and the coolest lows are below .〔 The park receives about 32 inches of precipitation in an average year, mostly in the form of snow in the winter.〔
