Dunsmuir, CA
Railroad Park Resort
What a great day! Our neighbors (Shannon and Lou) invited us to join them for a day trip to McCloud and Mount Shasta, which we eagerly accepted. The rain held off, so it was a perfect day to check out the McCloud River and all three waterfalls. The fall colors were stunning along the river and I couldn't help but take dozens of photos.
After checking out Fowler Campground for future reference, we headed into Mount Shasta for lunch at Sparky's Landing, which was very good. Not ready to return to our campground, we decided to wander around town and check out the headwaters at Big Springs. When we did get back to the RV park, we decided to have a drink out on the deck behind the the Railroad Park Resort restaurant & bar. We finished off the day with dinner and more drinks around the campfire, while Rod entertained us with his guitar. It was a perfect day!

We can't wait to meet up again with Shannon and Lou!
So pretty and it looks like you guys had a great time! Hope you can repeat this trip at some point in the future. :-)
ReplyDeleteKay, it was one of the most beautiful places we visited on this particular trip. I'm so glad we were able to see all of the waterfalls and meet such wonderful people at our campground.
DeleteThe McCloud River is one of our favorite quick getaways from our home in Ashland. We've spent many happy weekends camping there with friends. Your photos of the falls are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteLaurel, I think it was one of your posts that got me curious about Fowler CG. I can see how it's a favorite spot for you guys. We'll get back there eventually!
DeleteSuch a beautiful place. It looks like you picked a beautiful time to visit, too.
ReplyDeleteDeb, if & when we return, it will definitely be during the fall months. Such a gorgeous time of year with all the leaves turning. Summer months, on the other hand, would be far too hot, I'm afraid.
DeleteOh what a fun trip you guys had.
ReplyDeleteIliana, it was a great trip! I hope we can get out on the road later this year, if only for a week or two.
