Oh, another thing I thought of.
I skimmed the thread again and didn’t see it mentioned, which is surprising as it is kinda the elephant in the room… (I also skimmed the rules to the forum).
When you get to the Northern part of your trip around the Lassen and Shasta areas, you will want to obviously keep an eye out for sasquatch. Or sasquatches.
In my quick search on iNat I didn’t see any observations, but it’s really only a matter of time. Unless there are rules against it, or we treat it like ‘Fight Club’… or Vegas. Not sure.
Spring is here and there’s no telling what behaviors the warmer weather will bring.
Have fun!
