U.S. Library of Congress

Mount Shasta in California is a volcano in Siskiyou County that is the fifth highest in the state and one that has been visited for a very long time. In the picture above, you can see a group of men and females hiking in the area with very little equipment and a pole to stay balanced. Its highest part is nearly 10,000 feet tall, and on a clear day, it can be seen from the floor of the Central Valley 140 miles away. Its beauty has been an inspiration for many people, including poets and authors.
