1998 Map of Lake McCloud

About this map

The Mccloud River carves a central path through the northern California landscape in the late 1990s, feeding into the prominent Lake McCloud reservoir. The area is defined by the managed waters of the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, where civil engineering and recreation converge at the Lakin Dam and its adjacent Lakin Dam Picnic Area. The river's natural descent is marked by a series of cascades including Upper Falls and Lower Falls, with supporting infrastructure like the Middle Falls Overlook providing public access to these geologic features.
