Shasta Dam, which was completed in 1945 on the upper Sacramento River northwest of Redding, is the second-largest reservoir run by the Bureau of Reclamation in the country, behind Grand Coulee Dam in Washington.
Mt. Shasta, perpetually snow-capped and wrapped in a near-permanent cloud, rises 14,179 feet from the northern edge of California's Central Valley to mark the meeting point of the Sierra Nevada to the east, the Trinity Alps to the west, and the Cascade Range which runs northward through Oregon and Washington.
