An easy summit in the summer, but it can be a challenge in the winter. Great views into NV and OR. Permits and wag bags are a bit of a pain though. Nice even for those who don't want to summit.

I'm a native of southern California, and saw pictures of Mount Shasta and the lake when I was a teenager.

Mt Shasta up close is so spectacular. Snow was great & the sun was shining during our 2 day visit. Our family can's wait to visit again.

Mt Shasta is the crowning glory of Shasta-Trinity National Forest. Go there, you won't regret it! The view never fails to take my breath away and the town of Shasta city is a delight.

fun day hikes abound. great water falls all over. Berney falls is one of my favs. the mountain itself is so special. I just feel blessed to have it to look at daily.

The atmosphere and town are quaint and friendly. The mountain is beautiful in the winter months and is a great ski, snowboard area.

It is beautiful...The great outdoors.Its seen from my home most of the year. You can hike it but be careful as the weather can change fast and people can run into trouble.

You can feel the power of this mountain. Also, visiting the headwaters of the Sacramento River is inspiring.

I have been there 4 times in 4 yrs. each time I love the hospitality and the vibrancy of the mountain and the area.
