PCT Hike along the McCloud River, Scott Valley Tour including Kangaroo Lake

This is McCloud Lake. The lake is turquiose blue color from the glaciated waters of the mountain and pretty full from the recent rain we've received.

This is known as Penstemon. There are many varieties of this wildflower. It grows along the Pacific Crest Trail along the McCloud River.

Here's my friend Dee making sure we don't get lost. We didn't.

I took this picture to show what poison oak looks like right now. It was hard for me to get a very clear shot. A little blurry. See the berries. That's a good indication that it's poison oak. It's out in thickets right now.

I took a drive through Scott Valley with a few well worthy stops. I went to Kangaroo Lake. As I walked down to the lake, a bald eagle flew right in front of me. In this picture if you look close, you can see the picture of the Osprey I took. Tried to get the Eagle but it's in my memory forever.

Here is Kangaroo Lake located in the Klamath Mountains.

This is known as Lover's Leap. Scenery along the Gazelle-Callahan Road. Check out the Scott Valley Tour in "Mount Shasta Guide to Fun".

This is the famous Etna Brewery located in Etna part of Scott Valley. Stop by and try out their awesome selection of micro beers and their famous rootbeer. The Etna Brewery dates back to the 1870's.

As always, Have a great weekend!
