If you live in the southwest USA, get out your rain barrels and check on your catchment basins - you’re about to get a lot of unseasonal rain that if stored well - can help in the drier times. Let’s hope folks got practice in the past winter letting water sit so it can filter down to the aquifers too! Flood those orchards!

Halcyon holocene days have elapsed
Like hours whiled away waiting
For a time to come that has already passed
Certainty a luxury of the past
Fate intertwined with a planet ailing

So much more water in Lake #Shasta this year than last year. The docks are back to normal-ish locations.
(The same island one year ago and today. Look for the red patch on both the island for reference.)
We need to make everyone involved in this outrage famous. You want to destroy a little girls goat with a militarized police force? It’s gonna be expensive.

We were driving back from Mt Lassen when we stopped for a coffee and from the parking lot of a Starbucks I caught this view of Mt Shasta. It was interesting to see the juxtaposition of things like this. I proceed the image in Lightroom Mobile to selectively pop just the red to enhance the visual contrast between the subjects. What do you think? #photo #mountains #photography #shasta

This #whale-sized #marine #reptile in the #RoyalTyrrellMuseum is the #ichthyosaur Shastasaurus sikkaniensis. Unusually, it was not only one of the earliest members of its group, but one of the very largest. Its #species name comes from where it was found, along the Sikanni Chief River which flows out of the #RockyMountains of #BritishColumbia 🇨🇦. Its #genus name comes from Mt. #Shasta in the #CascadeRange, where other species of this Triassic titan have been found.

#OTD #California newspapers reported that #Botanists discovered a new #Plant.
The plant is #Native to the area around #Lake #Shasta. A member of the #Rose #Family, it has the charming common name Shasta #Snow #Wreath.
One of California's rarest #Plants, the #Beautiful #Blossom lasts 10 days in the #Spring. It looks like a white spikey #Puffball made up of a cluster of #Stamens rather than #Petals.
Today there are roughly 20 clusters of Shasta Snow-Wreath in California.

I'm writing a follow up for each of the interests I tagged in my #Introduction post to help "find my tribe".
---
I'm an amateur #mountaineer and #hiker.
Alignng my mind, body, and spirit in nature is where/how I find renewal, internal strength, and inspiration.
I've summited Mt. #Whitney, #HalfDome, and Oregon's South Sister, among many other challenging though less prominent summits. I failed a summit of Mt. Shasta.
I'm eager to attempt more, including a return to #Shasta, and #Ranier.
