About this map

The high-elevation watersheds of the Shasta National Forest define this 2021 landscape, where the Upper Mccloud River flows through the northern reaches. This terrain is characterized by a complex network of drainages and named gulches, including Gophers Gulch and Bigelow Gulch, which feed into the river system. Long-distance hikers pass through the heart of the region along the Pacific Crest National Scenic Trl, which winds past Grizzly Peak and Pigeon Hill.

Historically significant water sources are scattered throughout the mountain slopes, from the remote Bundoora Spring in the northwest to Dad Lofton Spring and Deer Springs. These features, along with open spaces like Angel Meadow and Stouts Meadow, indicate a landscape traditionally utilized for seasonal transit and resource access across the Siskiyou and Shasta county line. The presence of Grizzly Peak Rd provides the primary vehicular corridor through this steep, forested geography.
