Mt. Shasta Bench Mark

Rising an impressive 14,179 feet, Mount Shasta is the second highest peak in the Cascade Range and the most prominent peak in northern California.

Mount Shasta's massive volcanic cone contains California's only true glaciers, which extend down along the mountain's north and east slopes. Challenged by its varied terrain and its shear size, climbers from all over the world flock to Mount Shasta to test their skill and endurance. Guarded by cascading snowfields, whipping winds, and sudden storms, the mountain's steep slopes yield only to those climbers who have come prepared for an arduous ascent.

This impressive U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Benchmark replica recognizes the outstanding achievement of those who have mastered Mount Shasta's difficult terrain. The obverse replicates the design and detail of the official USGS Benchmark that graces Mount Shasta's towering peak. The reverse contains a space for engraving.

Minted in MerlinGold,® a proprietary brass alloy that simulates the look and feel of gold, this three-inch medallion is coated with an antique bronze finish. Each benchmark medallion comes in its own drawstring velour pouch accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
