Matt Snoozle reported this week that Shasta Lake is still going strong with fall color.

“Attached are some pictures from my recent trip to Shasta Lake,” he said. “It’s still spectacular there as of November 24. My guess is still a week left of fall leaves until the cold temps hit and snow falls.”
 
“I noticed there isn’t a locator on your map for Shasta Lake, so thought I would fill you in on this amazing spot and location.”
 
The entire drive along Gilman Road and Lake Shasta is paved and easy to complete on a day outing. Hirz Bay trailhead / picnic area is definitely worth a visit, he added.
 
Also, Whiskeytown to the west is still full of fall foliage.

Lake Shasta – 1,067′ – Peak (75-100%) GO NOW!
