About this map

The Shasta River and Little Shasta River converge in this northern California corridor, defining the agricultural and transit patterns of the Shasta Valley. The landscape is anchored by the historic rail and ranching hubs of Montague and Grenada, while the eastern edge of Yreka provides a window into the regional seat's growth. The terrain is marked by distinctive volcanic and alluvial features, including Butcher Hill and the Kilgore Hills, which rise above the surrounding flats.

Transportation remains central to the area's layout, from the Montague Airport-Yreka Rohrer Field to the network of rural routes like Yreka Ager Rd and Montague Grenada Rd. Genealogists and local historians can locate smaller landmarks such as Montague Cem and Julien Cem, alongside named drainages like Schulmeyer Gulch and Oregon Slu, which illustrate the complex water management essential to this high-desert valley.
