Or-Ca Trip–Part 3 West to tall trees and the Pacific!

One last chance perhaps to see Mt Shasta, but it wasn’t to be. We drove to Shasta Dam which was very impressive even if we couldn’t see the mountain. Quite spooky looking down – but not much of a flow. The early morning mist rolling back up from the cold waters below and over the…
