Day 12. Ashland to Yreka. 48.5 miles, 3723' climbing.

Today began with a climb of about 2500' to Siskiyou Pass.  It was a shady route but we still got hot.  Sweat dripped off me long before the summit.

This was the view from the 4464' pass.

As we neared Yreka (pronounced why-REE-ka) Kris snapped this pic of Mt. Shasta.  When we got in to town, we stopped at the first milk shake establishment we saw.  We both had Oreo cooke shakes.  Still, I look like I'm losing weight.

It's hot and dry here.  Stand in the sun and cook; sit in the shade and be comfortable.
