2018 Map of Inwood

About this map

The community of Inwood sits at the base of the Bear Creek Ridge in this Shasta County landscape, where the terrain is deeply carved by water. The transition from the high peaks of Alamine Peak and Blue Mtn down through Bear Creek Canyon and Wagoner Canyon defines the local geography. Settlements like Redwoods and Midway are connected by a network of ranch roads and historic paths such as Ponderosa Way. For those researching family history in the area, the Ogburn Inwood Cemetery serves as a key landmark. The hydrology of the region is prominent, featuring Bear Creek Falls and the confluence of numerous drainages including N Fork Bear Cr, S Fork Bear Cr, and Sheridan Cr. This layout reveals the traditional relationship between early mountain settlements and the essential water resources of the Sierra Nevada foothills.
