Hi Bubba, looks great so far. All the best! Cathi
Thanks Cathi!
Awesome, awesome website Bubba
Bubba,
You’ve been a busy guy! The website looks great! I’m putting the finishing touches on my guidebook and I’m going to send it to print today! Looking forward to getting together again. Thanks for the hiking info.
An awesome looking site with great info. Hope to make it up that way soon!
Give me a holler if you come down this way!
Wow, great site with a wealth of information. As soon as retirement hits – we are so there!
Thanks much! I hope the site is useful. If you do come to the area, let me know if I can help in any way!
Fantastic site. I hope to be in that country soon!
Thanks much! I hope you have a good time when you come out!
I would love to hike Mt. Shasta! Thanks for stopping by my blog. Your site is beautiful.
Thanks much! I appreciate it.
Great site. I’m going to be up there this summer, and I’m going to explore some of these trails.
If you need help or whatever while you are up here, give me a holler!
This is awesome. Reminds me that its almost 14er season. Nice post!
Spectacular. Must go there sometime.
Been using John Soares book for fifteen years, but found a new hike on your site-the one out of Kangaroo Lake. Like the loop option. We may have to do that trail in early July when we come up for 5 days. Thank you for a great website!
Wow. Thank you for the compliment. I am really glad the site is useful. I hope it continues to be so! You may have seen this, but another great trail that does not appear in any hiking guides is this one:

It is a lot easier to get to from Mount Shasta than Kangaroo Lake! Thanks again.
Great minds think alike! I already printed that one out. We did Parks Lakes a couple of years ago in the Fall-very near the Caldwell Lakes hike. Really enjoyed it-didn’t see another soul!
I am glad the stuff is useful. This may be out of left field, but if you need a place to crash while you are up here, or just to take showers or whatever, we keep a guesthouse across the street for out of town visitors. My wife and I like to be hospitable and help me enjoy the Shasta area, sort of like trail-angels on the PCT.
Hey, Bubba, that’s really kind of you to offer. My husband and I have been going up there since 1998 and we stay at Stewart Springs typically. Love falling asleep to Parks Creek. We will be showing another couple (who are new to the area) our favorite trails, but are also anxious to try new ones. May have to go back in the Fall for the new ones :^) Is the sushi place still in town, btw?
Great job on this! I’ll use it if I visit. And those pictures in the slide show make me want to visit asap!
Thanks for the feedback! I hope that the site is useful and that it gets folks to come explore the area. I just added my first trail for areas a little further away from Mount Shasta too (which are awesome!) so I hope to expand the area’s appeal. Give me a holler if you do come down this way!
I’m curious to see your hikes away from Mt. Shasta too. I have spent many many nights in the Trinity Alps and Russian Wilderness…but never made it as far as Shasta. Now I live in Oregon, so I’m even farther away. I’ll watch your blog and pick a hike to try next time I get down there.
I hope you are able to make it back down this way. We are obviously very proud of our area and think it has a lot to offer. I appreciate the interest in what I have been writing. I hope it proves useful!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this website and all the information you gathered and presented so beautifully
Believe me, it has been my pleasure! I hope that the site prove useful and helps people enjoy the Mount Shasta area. I really appreciate the feedback !
