From the Desert

While hiking in Sheep Rock, volcanic, pillar shaped natural rock formations rose around us giving the feeling of being in a giant castle... one with a spectacular view.

From the sage
Mt Shasta
Winters rest

High up on a rocky perch




Remnants of the old Chinese Rock Walls built during the California Gold Rush.
Rock wall in the junipers, Shasta Valley in the distance, Pacific Ocean just over those mountains.
All that shimmers is not made of gold.
