    Stupendous video review my man, might even call it a mini documentary. I know how much time it takes to shoot and edit something like this I actually did a review of the Vernal Falls hike on my channel. Perfect narration man. Don't change a thing

      @@ExploreAlways thank you sir, I mostly do photography related videos not really travel unfortunately so the channel may or may not appeal. I also just got finished watching your Salton sea episode. I didn't know the founder passed away. Also I always wondered where those dead fish came from because the sea almost look like it was always too salty to support life. That place is a medium format landscape photographers dream. I also know you don't want to break down out there or not have enough water. I don't know if you know about Huell Howser I'm sure you do he was one of my favorite travel channels I didn't mind his quirky ways LOL. California Through My Lens is a good Channel also but between me and you they're a little light and I appreciate how much deeper you dive into your locations especially including relevant history.

    Very nice. I was hoping you'd mention the town of Mt Shasta. It's pretty, the people are very friendly, and you can't swing a dead cat without hitting a hippy. There's also the gorgeous Bhuddist temple there. They do retreats with the public on Mount Shasta. It draws people from all over the world. Very open minded area.

    Next time you go, drive up the Everitt Memorial Highway that goes up the mountain to Bunny Flat or to the end of the road at the Old Ski Bowl for some great views looking down on Castle Crags and such. Other notables missed are McCloud Falls and Castle/Heart Lakes. Such a beautiful area with so much to explore!

    Edit: Finished the video. Everyone takes that path to mossbrae and there has never been any issues with getting in trouble. It’s worth it!

    Mossbrae falls is wonderful, just watch out for trains, you'll usually have one pass by while you walk the tracks to the falls and there's plenty of room to step off to the side and let them pass. it would make for a great video.

  • @Revelator2025

    Well we had fritters up there. Thyme fritters with some loqaui juice from the local market.
    At Fairly falls you can smell the neffrin and mint jubes.
    My girlfriend’s grandma even set a little dog on fire up there Wow, grandma! She’s a saucy riff.
    *Shasta fritters are okay but don’t have pigstock so bring your salt stones!

    @togglefire3537 6 років тому +1

    You're talking about some place that I feel at home right there. Shasta is one of the most Serene and beautiful places in all of California and my opinion. There's a few places you have to check out if you get a chance though. One is Castle Lake it's right above Lake Siskiyou and the other is the McCloud River. Even has a Reservoir in a town nearby it. You got to check it out if you get the chance

    • @mmakshak
      @mmakshak 5 років тому

      Good advice, Toggle. I visited Castle Lake when there was only one other car there, and the serenity was great. McCloud Falls has 3 different spots(upper, lower, and middle-?), and is an easily accessible area.

    As european citizen, I sort of envy the freedom to drive a 5.7 liter HEMI truck without going broke due to the gas prices (1 gallon here in Germany currently sets you back 7.30 dollars). But I cannot stop to wonder why these are still so popular in the US, even though I understand it to some extent.

    • @yearginclarke
      @yearginclarke 5 років тому +1

      Eh...your not missing much. I live in the US but I would only have one if you need power for pulling something heavy like an RV trailer or for work purposes. I work in logging where we use company trucks like that, but aside from work purposes I have no desire to own one myself due to cost reasons, they are a pain in tight parking and cities, and I just never saw what's so great about a big truck.

    If you ever go back to Castle Crags check out Root Creek Falls. It's a lesser known to people not from the area but well worth it to see the wet times of year, it is a series of falls that are altogether 350 feet tall. Check it out here: hikemtshasta.com/castle-crags/root-creek-trail/

  • @thomasstillman4805

    • @deztiny005
      @deztiny005 3 роки тому

      I live in Redding. Lassen is more active! And another great place to visit. Shasta is majestic and grand in all it's beauty but Lassen feels alive!! It's a much different vibe.

  • @mmakshak
    @mmakshak 5 років тому +1

    I got lucky finding Mossbrae Falls. I was misdirected by a local, but ran into some people going there, after I had given up. I found some interesting areas near Castle Crags. Since I'm no longer able to hike much, I depend upon areas near the road. I definitely want to live in this area, as I feel it is where I belong. I've also helped the area.

      It'd be a shame for folks to be that close to Burney Falls (less than an hour from Mt. Shasta, actually - I regularly drive between Mt. Shasta and Fall River Mills, another town just a bit beyond the Falls!) and not know that you could see one of the world's most beautiful waterfalls with just a bit more driving. A lot of the water of Burney Falls comes right out of the rock face - that's not an illusion! So, it's good for travelers to know it's a sightseeing/hiking option if they're traveling that close anyway.

      I thought the old Coke factory shut down, and Crystal Geyser opened it back up recently. BTW, Crystal Geyser from here benefits greatly from structuring. You just have to do it for a long time. Nothing beats glass(plastic imparts something to the water.). I'm currently structuring and drinking Adobe Spring water, as I ran out of Headwaters' water, and that was mostly gathered in plastic bottles. Headwaters' water is where I made the determination that glass is much better than plastic.
