Iron Canyon Access
Iron Canyon Access provides entry to Iron Canyon Reservoir in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, located 35 miles east of Highway 299 via Big Bend Road.
The area offers a boat launch at Hawkins Landing Campground (10 sites with daily fees) and the free Deadlun Campground (30 units, vault toilets, no water), making it suitable for fishing and boating with smaller, low-speed vessels.
Note that powerboats and water-skiing are prohibited, and access roads beyond the main area are primitive and may require high-clearance or 4WD vehicles.
