Memories of Route 66 (a TV series....dating myself here...I can barely remember it) only we are on The 299 and heading East. Fall River Mills is a small town of charm and beauty about an hour and half from Redding on The 299. On the way to Alturas, one finds "The Hat Creek" and The Pit River. This river community has much to offer.
The Hat Creek is known for some of the best Fly Fishing in the Western US. Winds through our county and is available throughout the Eastern perimeter.
Further along we come to MacArthur, CA a farming valley with impressive views of Mount Shasta. The Mountain appears to be a "Heavenly Being" hanging over this blessed valley protecting and standing guard.
This farming community is protected and has the feeling of having been passed by. Everything is slower and more pleasant in MacArthur. Simpler times still exist here.

Jeanean- Beautiful photos of Mt Shasta- Brings back many memories that for a long time were too painful to bear- as my mother would bring us camping there at least 2 times every year on our way up to Tacoma to visit her mother. My mother was killed at the age of 40. I am now able to remember with joy instead of sadness. Thank you for sharing.
