The Great Northern railroad corridor defines this high-altitude landscape where the Shasta National Forest meets the Modoc National Forest. At the heart of the region lies Hambone, a central junction point served by the Great Northern Road and the Mc Cloud River Road. This 1961 field-checked survey reveals an environment shaped by volcanic activity and cold-storage geology, evidenced by the Deep Ice Caves, Mayfield Ice Cave, and prominent peaks like Hambone Butte and Porcupine Butte.
