Shasta Lake dominates the eastern half of this terrain, where its sprawling waters reach into the Sacramento River Arm and Salt Creek Inlet. This 2022 survey captures the complex shoreline and high-relief interior of the Shasta National Forest, a landscape defined by deep drainages like Dark Canyon and Shoemaker Gulch. In the high country to the west, Bohemotash Mtn and Mammoth Butte overlook the watersheds of N Fork Little Backbone Cr and Mary Fork. The map documents a rugged topography where narrow ridges like Backbone Ridge separate numerous seasonal and perennial creeks. Traces of human presence are sparse, indicated by features such as Shoemaker Spring and the Sugar Loaf Creek Trl, while landmarks like Slaughterhouse Island remain above the waterline of the reservoir.
