2021 Map of Hatchet Mountain Pass

About this map

Lassen National Forest terrain dominates this Shasta County landscape, centered on the crossing of Hatchet Mountain Pass. This high-elevation region is defined by a series of prominent peaks and ridgelines, including Bunchgrass Mtn, Fauries Peak, and Snow Mtn, which separate the various forks of the local drainage system. A network of forest roads and historic trails, such as Terry Mill Rd and Moose Camp Rd, provides access to these timberlands and remote meadows like Fuller Flat and Carberry Flat. Water is abundant throughout the drainages of Hatchet Cr, N Fork Montgomery Cr, and Little Cow Cr, with distinct landmarks like Indian Spring and Blue Lake serving as vital points of reference for those navigating the backcountry.
