  • Burney Falls is a beautiful National Natural Landmark on Burney Creek in McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park, Shasta County, California, USA. The water comes from underground springs above and at the falls, which plunges 129 feet. The waterfall was named after pioneer settler Samuel Burney who lived nearby in the 1850s. The McArthurs settled nearby in the late 1800s and their descendants saved the waterfall from development, bought the property and gifted it to the state in the 1920s. The park is northeast of Redding, six miles north of Highway 299 on Highway 89 near Burney. The Pacific Crest Trail passes through the park.

  • Granite pinnacles soar above krumholtz trees atop Castle Dome Trail in Castle Crags State Park, just west of Interstate 5, between the towns of Castella and Dunsmuir, in California, USA. One of my favorite hikes in the state is to Castle Dome, on an excellent trail 5.8 miles round trip with 2100 feet gain. Geology: although the mountains of Northern California consist largely of volcanic and sedimentary rocks, granite plutons intruded in many areas during the Jurassic period. Heavy Pleistocene glaciation eroded much of the softer surrounding rock leaving soaring crags and spires exposed. Exfoliation of huge, convex slabs of granite made rounded towers such as the prominent Castle Dome. This panorama was stitched from 13 overlapping photos.
