2022 Map of Dunsmuir
USGS Topo · Published 2022About this map
The Sacramento River carves a deep canyon through this portion of the Shasta National Forest, serving as the primary corridor for both the Union Pacific railroad and regional travel. The settlement of Dunsmuir anchors the northern canyon, supported by smaller historical communities like Shasta Retreat, Castella, and Sweetbriar. This steep topography is defined by dramatic vertical relief, from the granite spires of Castle Crags and Castle Dome to the prominent heights of Mt Bradley and Girard Ridge. The map documents a landscape where water and transit meet, featuring numerous named springs such as Upper Soda Springs, Cave Springs, and the spectacular Mossbrae Falls. Hikers can trace the winding path of the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trl as it traverses the ridges, while genealogists may find interest in the location of the Dunsmuir Cem overlooking the river valley.
