Iron Canyon Reservoir Access
Iron Canyon Reservoir Access
Iron Canyon Reservoir Access provides a boat launch ramp at Hawkins Landing Campground (PG&E-managed) for paddlers and anglers accessing this remote 500-acre mountain lake in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest.
The reservoir features two developed campgrounds (Deadlun and Hawkins Landing) plus undeveloped shoreline camping, though water levels fluctuate significantly due to hydroelectric operations—check conditions before visiting.
Access requires a scenic but rough 5. 5-mile drive from Big Bend on a road frequented by logging trucks; smaller, low-speed boats are recommended due to shallow areas and submerged obstacles.
