CONSIDERING THE LILIES: MT. SHASTA IN THE DISTANCE 

 Mount Shasta, according to an Indian legend, was the first mountain made by the Creator as His 

 masterpiece, and with this as a model He designed the other mountains of the world. The ascent of 

 Shasta is difficult, but with competent guides is not perilous. With the little town of Sisson as a base, 

 there is a good horseback trail to Timberline Camp, an overnight rest six miles away. Starting from 

 this camp very early the next morning, the experienced mountaineer can make the ascent and return 

 to Sisson in a day.
