Facilities All campsites have picnic tables, grills, fire rings, and parking spurs. Portable toilets are provided. Natural Features Shasta-Trinity is the largest national forest in California with a diverse landscape encompassing five wilderness areas, hundreds of mountain lakes and 6,278 miles of streams and rivers.

A snow-capped Mount Shasta, the second-tallest mountain in the Cascade Range, looms in the distance.
