About this map

Shasta National Forest dominates this Siskiyou County landscape, defined by a complex series of volcanic buttes and isolated springs. The terrain is marked by distinctive elevations like Horse Peak, Oso Butte, and the prominent Fisk Ridge in the north. Water sources are scattered throughout the forest, including Harris Spring, Bear Spring, and the seasonal Dry Lake in the southeast.

Remote roads and trails such as NF-13 and Hemlock TS Rap provide the primary access through these high-elevation woods. Local landmarks like Masonic Rock and Harris Rock offer specific points of interest for those tracing the geographic features of the region. The map also captures several high-altitude water bodies, notably Toad Lake near Toad Mountain, providing a detailed look at the hydrology of this protected mountain territory during the early 21st century.
