Description
The scene around Mount Shasta in far Northern California. At 14,179 feet it's the second highest peak in the Cascade Range.
It's a very spiritual mountain to the peoples who inhabited this area before Europeans arrived, and still is for many. It is also an active volcano.
For me, it's yet another wonder of nature. From all sides the peak towers above the surrounding area as if watching over things. However, should it erupt again, the result may be similar to the 1980 eruption of its fellow Cascadian, Mt St. Helens.
There are several small towns around the mountain, including Mt. Shasta City, Weed, Yreka, McCloud, and others, all with their own relationship to Shasta.
