Wow! What a majestic mountain! The snowcaps, cloud and cloudless covers (depending on the time of year, the weather & time of day), views are all majestic! The drive from north-south has the more impressive sights from I-5...especially when you come around the curve in the road!

Beautifully groomed trails through a variety of terrain, among the majestic trees on the flanks of Mount Shasta. What could be better! I've brought my mom (in her mid-70's) to ski here and she loves it, too! There is a little yurt for a reception center and warming hut, but if they aren't open, there is a place you can leave a donation so you can still ski on the trails on the honor system.

This is a well organized, fun museum, which offers a lot to adults, families, and even younger children. The museum has artifacts from native Americans, mostly baskets and pictures; information about the railroad, with a place to sit and drive the locomotive. The gift shop has a nice variety of items, including jewelry made by local artists. Next door is the oldest hatchery west of the Mississippi!

Several times I have done business with The Velvet Elephant while in Mt. Shasta. My brother lives in town, we are both interested in art and The Velvet Elephant has what we need in both art materials and existential humanity. The owners are two of the finest people I have met. A fascinating store in a wonderful town. I have purchased a couple of art materials that I could not find in Missoula, MT. And so easy to do business on the phone as well. Thank you.
