Hike Mount Shasta... “The Shasta Valley to the north of Mount Shasta is a starkly beautiful high desert region. Falling in Mount Shasta’s rainshadow, the valley’s dry environment is remarkably different from cool forests that surround the other sides of the massive volcano. It also differs from the higher, wooded areas in terms of public access. Where Mount Shasta and the surrounding mountains are all on public land and are open for recreation, only small pieces along the Shasta Valley’s southeastern fringe are open to the public. Consequently, most of the valley is off limits to hikers, which is particularly unfortunate in the winter and spring when the high desert environment means the potential for excellent, snow-free off season hiking. Fortunately, there is a single, lone exception to this situation. The Shasta Valley Wildlife Refuge, hidden in the northern end of the Shasta Valley, is a large 4,657 park administered by the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. Originally a ranch, the land has now been converted into a park that provides refuge to deer, coyotes, mountain lions and countless smaller mammals and birds. It is also a refuge for hikers eager to enjoy incredible views and warmer, drier lands during the colder parts of the year.”
