Whether you're looking for ghost towns, stalking rare flora and fauna, or simply wanting to find an interesting way from a to B, come on in - all are welcome!

docbrown Cool picture - I haven't been up to Lassen for a few years and need to take a trip back soon.
garyt Been to Lassen 3 times and I think it's possibly the most underappreciated National Park in the U.S. The hike from a parking lot at around 8,000+ ft elevation to the top of the peak at 11,000 ft is an amazing treat - above treeline, with Mt Shasta in the distance and best of all, anyone came make the climb or more accurately, long hike to the top.
