Shasta Revisited
Through several iterations, editing, and testing (successfully starting in 1850 on Hard), I have finalized this map to share with the community!
The semi-fictional city of Lake Shasta sits in the crossroads of a nexus of cities located on a drained reservoir basin and is setup in prime position to become a mega-hub!
Do not let the terrain scare you away! The main routes can actually follow the flat basin floor while alternate routes can tunnel through or wind their way around the mountains to your heart’s content!
17 randomly named cities all begin relatively small to allow for growth where you desire and industries are in fixed locations.

This map made from USGS 10m heightmap data from Shasta Lake in Northern California but has been adjusted and exaggerated for desired effect.
Rough placement of cities and industries and the elevation range was initially set with the help of the mapping tool: transportfevermods.com/en/mapcreator.html
The map size is 4092×3068 and does NOT require any addon or unlock to play.

Please leave feedback and enjoy!!!
