Runs

There will be two (2) runs today.

One is an early AM run that is more of a hike than a drive. We'll go to Hedge Creek Falls along back roads through Dunsmuir. You can take the trail behind the falls and watch the waterfall from behind, great photo op. TIME: Count on 1-1.5 hours for the hike and return to Railroad Park.

The other run will be a drive up to Panther Meadows high up on Mt. Shasta. The climb up is amazing. A smooth paved road with plenty of twisties. The drive is 25 miles long and takes about an hour, perhaps less in a MINI. We peak at 7800 feet. Large parking lot for all and plenty of photo opportunities. TIME: It will take approximately 3-3.5 hours round trip, but maybe more due to stopping and exploring along the way.
