The trail provides great views of Shasta, fall wildflowers, the tip top of Mt. A. The Grouse Gap shelter is the perfect halfway point to stop for a quick bite and taking it all in.
Travel along with the Society as we pass through a mixed conifer forest, interesting granite rock formations, small mountain meadows, large cirque basins blanketed with columbine, scarlet, Indian paintbrush, lupines and mountain gentians.
Boom, you’ve made it over Hump Day.
