1995 Map of East of Pondosa

About this map

Shasta National Forest lands dominate this northern California landscape, showing the transition from the forested hillsides down into the volcanic flats marked by extensive lava beds. The 1995 revision reveals a network of timber and access roads, including many designated 4wd routes, illustrating the region's managed wilderness character. The border between Siskiyou and Shasta counties bisects the terrain, which is defined by the winding course of Bear Creek. Sparse human habitation is concentrated at small interior junctions such as Hammond Crossing and Spalding Corner, while the settlement of Dana sits along the eastern edge. A significant pipeline corridor cuts through the southeastern portion, marking a modern utility footprint across the volcanic geology.
