landscape photo of a mountain

We were looking for a new route through Oregon to Portland from California that would not involve I-5. We left I-5 at Mount Shasta and headed toward the South Klamath basin. We were looking for migrating birds (and there were thousands), but as it was late, the light made it difficult for bird photography. But then we saw Mt. Shasta.........................the light was phenomenal! This is the result. The route from Mount Shasta, to the Klamath Basin , Crater Lake, Bend and Smith Rock is well worth the extra time it takes!
