Things are finally slowing down at work enough to get in a few short journeys away from Big Sur.
I just got back from a 4 day trip to Mt. Shasta. I spent time with an old friend and despite the fact it rained almost the entire time, had a great time!
Driving to Mt. Shasta it was raining and the clouds/fog made it imposable to see the mountain.
That is until we reached the town of Mt. Shasta. The clouds parted and for a brief moment I got to look upon the sacred mountain.

Finally! The clouds part and I get to see the mountain.

Continuing up the mountain, we knew the road was closed at about 8,000′. The clear sky moment we had just experienced was gone quickly. I took this shot just before we reached the road closure.

The next day, despite the continuing down pour of rain, we headed out to the
Shasta Lake Caverns.
To Be Continued…….
Oh, I was so hoping you were going to post your Shasta trip photos here. These are just beautiful. Can’t wait for the next installment!
