About this map

Shasta River and its numerous tributaries define the hydrology of this portion of the Shasta Valley. The landscape is marked by a unique cluster of volcanic-related features, including Hole in the Ground Lake and Hole-in the-Ground Spring. Human settlement is concentrated around the small community of Big Springs and the residential developments bordering the northern reaches of Lake Shastina, where roads like Dwinnell Way and Shoreline Dr trace the water's edge.

The map reflects the agricultural and rural character of Siskiyou County, showing established properties such as Dukes Ranch and the interestingly named Seldom Seen Ranch Rd. Transitioning from the valley floor to the elevated Juniper Flat in the northeast, the terrain supports a network of local thoroughfares including CO Hwy-A12 and Big Springs Rd that connect the isolated Four Corners junction to the surrounding ranchland.
