Mount Shasta (north face)

The north face of Mount Shasta, taken from a roadside vista point off highway 97. That's Shastina, a satellite volcanic cone, off to the right. Three of the Mount Shasta Glaciers are visible. Between Shastina and the peak of Mount Shasta is Whitney Glacier, running from the peak to the right is Bolam Glacier, and from the peak to the left is Hotlum Glacier.

Camera location: 41° 37' 01"N, 122° 12' 06" W (~19 miles away)





This photo was taken the day after the photo of the south face. You can see how different the land is on the north side of Mount Shasta - instead of forest there's grassland with scattered trees.

We saw quite a few large dust devils over the farms going north on 97 from here; none were close enough to really show up well in a photograph, though.
