Shasta

Lake Siskiyou, where I am camped, is near Mt. Shasta.  Shasta is an immense stratovolcano.  Click on the image to see the town of Mt. Shasta, at the foot of the mountain.

I drove up Shasta on an access road, about 1/3 of the way to the top to get this view.  Even from only 1/3 of the way up, I was well above most other peaks in the region.

In my campground, there is a herd of two does and three fawns, one still wearing his spots.

They seem very comfortable here, and most of the feeding seems to be very natural - twigs and leaves, with some pawing for acorns.

Tomorrow, I leave here for McArthur-Burney Falls.
