About the California Backcountry Discovery Trail 
Picking up where the Forest Service Left off, the Shasta-Trinity BDT connects the Backcountry Discovery Trails along the coastal range (Six Rivers, Mendocino), with the BDTs to the east that run along the Sierra and Cascade ranges (Tahoe, Plumas, Lassen, Modoc). With the addition of the Shasta-Trinity and Tahoe BDTs (mapped in July 2020), it's now possible to string these various routes together for a 1,000 + mile dirt adventure.
