DESCRIPTION: This 637± acre block of land in the Mt. Shasta Trinity National Forest has a rare setting along the northeast shoreline of Castle Lake, the largest of 25 alpine within the Upper Sacramento Watershed, and home to Castle Lake Environmental Research and Education Program at University of California, Davis, which is the longest running program of its kind in America.

The Castle Lake Tract may have the most significant combination of conservation and recreation develop- ment opportunity for a large block of private land in Northwest California, with year-round access from I-5.

The property includes frontage along Castle Lake, and has a spectacular landscape of granite outcrops, lush meadows with wildflowers, secluded Little Castle Lake, and an estimated 14 million board feet of primar- ily white and red fir, including old growth, some of which is over 200 years old. Please see Supplemental Information Package for Timber Inventory Report. Additionally, the entire property is zoned RRB-40 by Siskiyou County, which allows residential uses, and campground development. Almost two-thirds of this nearly one square mile of private property is within the 10,500 acre Castle Crags Wilderness.

The combination of accessibility, size, zoning, landscape, and location, within the wilderness area, provides a new owner with an exceptional opportunity to incorporate both private recreation development, and conservation values, within Shasta-Trinity Region.

Castle Lake Trailhead starts near the northwest corner of the property, and runs east through the property
