1990 Map of Snag Hill

About this map

Shasta National Forest defines the rugged geography of this high-elevation landscape, where the volcanic character of the terrain is evident in features like Lava Crack Spring and the subterranean formations of Ice River Caves and Water Caves. The map documents a sparse but significant industrial presence, primarily related to timber and water access in the late 20th century. Traces of historical transportation are visible through the Old RR Grade and the Chippy Spur, indicating the area's role in the regional logging economy. Isolated landmarks like Lost Iron Well and the prominent heights of Snag Hill and Powder Hill provide essential points of orientation within this dense wilderness. The arrangement of these features suggests a landscape managed for resource extraction while remaining largely dominated by its natural geological curiosities.
