Lake Shasta (1114)

Lake Shasta (1114)
The effects of the drought on Lake Shasta. BUT, caution is needed in interpreting that because Lake Shasta depth varies by season. On the date I took this, Lake Shasta was at 24% of total capacity, but at a less drastic 41% of the historical average for that date.

Interesting, too--I've seen pix of the hills around Shasta about the time the dam was built, and they were almost barren. The forest has made a big comeback in the last 80 years or so.

I took this from a hike about a mile up to a view point, which was obscured because the trees were too dense. Considering the drought and the fire nearby in Weed, I was a little concerned about getting trapped by fire on a trail.
