How to Use This Lake Shastina, California Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lake Shastina, California. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of California or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Lake Shastina.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

About Lake Shastina, California

Lake Shastina is a locality in Siskiyou County, California, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,401. The population density is 231.0 people per km². Lake Shastina is located at 41.5231°N, 122.3764°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 96094.

Lake Shastina occupies a high-desert basin where the air holds a thin, crystalline clarity that sharpens the edges of every sagebrush and basalt outcropping. It lies 58.6 miles north of Shasta Lake, CA (from Shasta Lake, CA: bearing 0°T), and is situated 7.4 miles north of Weed. The landscape sprawls toward the horizon in muted tones of ocher and burnt umber, defined by the expansive, open reach of Juniper Flat to the south and the rugged, distant peaks of the Klamath Mountains anchoring the western skyline. Within the immediate vicinity, the terrain transitions into the dense, pine-scented embrace of Shasta National Forest, which acts as a green threshold against the arid plains. During the height of summer, the light turns a deep, honeyed gold, casting long shadows that emphasize the stark, geological reality of a land shaped by ancient volcanic activity and the slow, persistent work of the Shasta River carving through the rocky earth.

Water remains the vital pulse of this environment, as the presence of Lake Shastina provides a necessary mirror for the vast, cloud-streaked sky. While the economy here has evolved from the quiet rhythms of early agricultural settlement into a space defined by residential life and outdoor recreation, the history of the region is still written in the irrigation patterns and the persistent growth of hardy, native vegetation. Residents often look toward the distant, shimmering presence of the Bolam Glacier or venture toward the steep, hidden descent of Whitney Falls to find the true character of the high country. Life in Lake Shastina moves in accordance with the seasons, from the biting, silent frosts of winter to the sudden, vibrant blooming of the plains, maintaining a steady, grounded pace that honors the immense, silent scale of the northern California interior.

About This Lake Shastina Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lake Shastina, California. Coordinates: 41.523127, -122.376366. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Lake Shastina includes the ZIP code (96094), telephone area code (530), county seat of Siskiyou County (Yreka), and school district assignment (Butteville Union Elementary School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
