Today I have photos Mount Shasta in California, USA. Mount Shasta is a stratovolcano in California. It has the second highest peak in the Cascade Range and the 5th highest in California. Mount Shasta is approximately 9,822 ft (2,994 m) high.
I first start off with some photos of my drive up Mount Shasta. Remember those forest fires? I was about to give up going up the mountain but the visitor center person told me that you may be able to get above the smoke. I decided to take the chance. Look further in the post to see if it was all worth it in the end. :)

Another photo of Mount Shasta on the drive up. I wanted to get the layered forest effect from all that smoke.

Now I get to the end of the road. This is Ski Bowl Trail, the highest point on the mountain that you can drive up to. From here, you can climb to the summit if you are that fit. There is a sign and a box providing you with a map, instructions, and a bag for collecting human feces. Obviously, there are no bathrooms on this mountain.

I then shot a panorama there from the same spot.
I noticed the sky being all weird from the polarizer so I shot another panorama with it off.
Here is a photo of the road leading to Ski Bowl Trail.

I turned around and got another photo of the summit of Mount Shasta.
Heading back down the mountain, I stopped by Bunny Flat. Not sure why they call it Bunny Flat, but I did see quite a lot of squirrels.
