Adventure 074 - Shasta

Capture California, the Game-2012

Adventure: 074 - Shasta

Team: Thing One, Thing Two

Date:  June 7, 2012

Location: Shasta, Northern California

Description:

With a snow capped mountain resisting melting effects of summer; with a deep blue lake invitingly cold, you know that it Hasta be Shasta. (Apologizes to the Shasta Soda Pop company.)



On our way back from Victoria, we came down I-5. And low and behold, there was Mt. Shasta looming up in front of us, its peak hidden in the clouds. Even with it partially hidden, the view is majestic. You can understand how the Native American mysticism would evolve around this mountain.

Then after a couple of hours, and a stop for lunch, we came across Shasta Lake. This lake seemed to go on forever.



We will definitely come back here someday.
