About this map

The Klamath River and Shasta River converge in this northern California landscape, which is defined by the steep canyons and narrow gulches surrounding Yreka. The northern edge of the city and the small community of Hawkinsville occupy the valley floor before the terrain rises sharply into the Klamath National Forest. This modern survey illustrates the complex drainage network of the region, including Yreka Cr, Oregon Slu, and numerous named gulches like Jail Gulch and Modoc Gulch.

The infrastructure on the map reveals a transition from the urban grid of Yreka to the winding mountain passages of Klamathon Rd and Anderson Grade Rd. Prominent landmarks such as the Pioneer Bridge and the summit of Paradise Craggy provide fixed points for navigating the varied topography of the Shasta Valley. Named springs like Lower Maple Spring and Iron Trough Spring signify vital water sources in this dry, high-elevation environment.
