El Niño rains should make for great fishing season
By JON LEWIS
hen it rains, it pours. And when it
pours — even if it’s just a return to
historical average rainfall figures — anglers
in the Intermountain area do a happy dance.
Why? Trout thrive in fresh, cool water and
a healthy snowpack, coupled with replenished
aquifers, translate to a long and productive
season.
“It should be a great season up there with
lots of water,” predicted Shannon Engh, a
longtime Shasta County guide now working
with The Fly Shop in Redding.
“For the season in general, all this water
should make for a nice, good summer fishing
season,” agreed Andrew Harris, a north state
fishing guide who formed Confluence Outfitters in 2007. “Things will be a little different
from last year for sure.”
In early spring, it’s difficult to predict exactly how the season will shake out, Harris
said, since there’s hopefully a little more to
add to the snowpack. The two popular rivers
W
fed by snowmelt, the McCloud and the Pit,
will depend in part on how early the warm
weather sets in.
Fall River and Hat Creek, which are primarily spring-fed, should be good to go when
the bell sounds on the final Saturday in April.
“In general the sure-fire bets will be Burney Creek above the waterfall, the upper and
lower Hat Creek and Fall River. Parts of the
McCloud and Pit might be fishable and some
may not. It really depends how fast the snow
melts,” Harris said.
“The streams will be a little bit high at the
beginning of the season, but that’s a good
thing,” Harris said.
Brian Bommarito, another Fly Shop guide,
agreed. “When it’s high in the spring, it stays
colder and makes it last into the summer. The
last few years, it gets so low and warm it’s bad
for the fish.”
Bommarito said he does the bulk of his
guiding on the lower Sacramento River, but
he’s been fishing Hat Creek for the last 25
years. “It’s one of my favorite places in the
whole world. I do a lot of wading trips on
foot. Hat Creek is pretty awesome; there are
a lot of secrets to unlock and I keep finding
them.
“Every year I learn something really groovy
and new. The fish are so educated; they see so
much traffic. There are a bunch of fish in Hat
Creek, but you’ve got to know where they’re
at.”
Hat Creek and Fall River get their life from
springs fed by aquifers thousands of feet deep
that have been collecting rainfall and snowmelt on the massive Modoc Plateau, a milehigh expanse of lakes, forests and volcanic
formations that covers northeast California.
Geologists believe the plateau was formed
some 25 million years ago.
The water—lots of it—bubbles up cold and
clear from a network of lava tubes that stretch
from the flanks of Lassen Peak north and
west to Mt. Shasta and possibly into southern

Oregon. Combined, Fall River, Hat Creek and Burney Creek have a
nearly constant flow of 2,000 cubic feet per second. That translates to
roughly 15,500 gallons per second, or enough water to fill a 1,000-acre
reservoir four feet deep each day.
“Fall River is a very reliable destination,” Harris said. “It’s rarely
blown out, even in big water years. It’s almost always fishable on
opening day. It’s just a real stable environment for the fish.”
Fall River and the lower stretch of Hat Creek are both catch-andrelease fisheries. Anglers interested in using bait and bringing home a
stringer of fish will enjoy Upper Hat Creek as well as Baum and Cassel
lakes. Those particular waters benefit from the state Department of
Fish and Wildlife’s trout stocking program.
Most Intermountain-area waters were scheduled to be stocked a
week prior to the April 30 season opener. The schedule is available by
visiting www.nrm.dfg.ca.gov/FishPlants.
Baum Lake, which is open for fishing year-round, is as close to a
sure thing for anglers. Fed by Hat Creek’s cold water, the reservoir
provides a perfect home for trout by offering plenty of insects for
protein and lots of places to hide in. A prohibition on gas-powered
motors ensures a quiet fishing experience for bank anglers, float-tube
fishermen and those in small boats.
In addition to rainbow trout, anglers can target bluegill, bass, crappie and catfish in Lake Britton.
Burney Creek flows over the 129-foot falls and seeps out the basalt rock at McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park.
Nature’s classroom awaits school groups, admitted free
this year at McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park
By BILL CAMPBELL
he single deer swimming in Lake Britton perplexed a group of students and
tour guide Marlon Sloan, McArthur-Burney
Falls Memorial State Park interpretive specialist. It’s a wide body of water and deer are
not usually seen in the lake. Soon, observant
students spotted the likely reason – a mountain lion hiding high on the limbs of a waterside tree. Sloan thinks the mountain lion
chased the deer into the water.
“Sightings of mountain lions (and bears for
that matter) in the park are extremely rare,”
Sloan affirmed. Mother Nature was working
before the curious student’s eyes. Last year, 25
school groups toured the park.
This year, private and public school groups
from any grade can tour the park Thursday
through Monday. Park admission is free.

Call 530-335-3171 for a reservation. The
trip to this playground may be a student’s
first experience in the wonder world of their
natural environment set against a backdrop
of tall Ponderosa pine, cedar and oak trees,
four-legged animals scrambling across rocks
and birds sitting in trees overlooking Burney
Creek as it flows over the 129-foot falls and
seeps out the basalt rock in Mother Nature’s
outdoor classroom.
The 2016 season of park programs for visitors begins April 11 when the Visitor Center
opens. Located near the park entrance, the
center is open 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., Thursdays
through Mondays.
From May through Labor Day, the center is
open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekends and
11 a.m. to 3 p.m., Monday through Friday.
A 17-minute park orientation video regu-
larly plays in the Visitor Center theatre. In the
exhibit area you can touch animal skeletons
and fur and peruse exhibits to learn more
about the region’s nature, ecology, history and
culture.
Canoe tours on Lake Britton return for a
third year. Guests tour Burney Creek Cove,
learn the park’s history, look at geological
formations and watch wildlife at play. The
twice weekly tours are Fridays at 6 p.m. and
Sundays at 10 a.m.
A fleet of watercraft is available for rent
including canoes, fishing boats, party barge,
kayaks and paddle boats.

monthly programs are one Saturday a month
during summer season.
An enhanced Junior Ranger program, Arts
and Crafts program, hikes to falls and on park
trails, games, regular sing along with traditional American music and litter improvement programs are planned. A bird watching program is in development.
A weekly list of park programs is published
in a special column in The Intermountain
News. Copies of The News are available at the
Visitor Center. All proceeds from the newspaper sales go directly to the McArthur Burney
Falls Interpretative Association, which funds,
together with other private donations, Sloan’s
position and many park programs.
THE FALLS
The main attraction of the park, of course,
is the spectacular waterfall from which the
park derived its name.
The height of the falls is 129 feet and the
depth of the pool below is 22 feet. More than
100 million gallons of water flow over the
cliffs. Theodore Roosevelt is believed to have
once called it the eighth wonder of the world.
Burney Falls was designated a National
Natural Landmark in 1984. The National Park
Service under the U.S. Department of the Interior noted: “This site possesses exceptional
value as an illustration of the nation’s natural
heritage and contributes to a better understanding of man’s environment.”
The trail to the bottom of the falls includes
displays and explanations of the surrounding
forestry and geology. The park has more to
offer than the popular falls photography or
hiking down to the base of the waterfall.
The park is one of the oldest in the State
Park system, dating back to 1920, when Frank
McArthur gave 160 acres of land to the state
for his parents, John and Catherine McArthur. Over the years, the park has expanded
to its present size of 565 acres.
CABINS
When it comes to being outdoors there are
some who would rather bring their entire
home with them, especially when colder
weather is a factor.
That home – rather a smaller version of it –
is available for rent in the park.
In the Pioneer Campground, 24 cabins keep
campers warm during inclement weather.
The campground is located a half-mile from
the ranger station at the entrance of the park.
Twelve cabins are 12’X18’ single room, single
bunk-bed with table and chairs.
The larger cabins are 12’ by 24’ with two
bunk beds and table and chairs. Campers
need to bring bedding. Cabins have no running water, electricity or kitchen facilities.
Each cabin has a 6-foot by 12-foot porch.
The cabins were built of knotted pine. The

The cabins and campground are reserved
by contacting Reserve America at 1-800-4447275 or visit www.parks.ca.gov and follow the
link to reservations for state parks.
CAMPING
A large campground is scattered throughout the forest with 104 campsites equipped
with tables, stoves and food lockers. The
campground has piped drinking water and
combination buildings with restrooms, hot
showers and laundry tubs.
Some campsites have spaces large enough
to accommodate camper vehicles and trailers
although trailer hookups are not provided.
Prices are $30 per night off season and $35
from Memorial Day to September 10. Camping fees are $5 less for people over 62.
Day use fees are $8 or $7 for those ages 62
and older, per vehicle. A seasonal day use
pass is available for northern California state
parks for $125 or a statewide pass is $195.
The passes have some exceptions such as no
admission to Hearst Castle.
Fuel and fires or the camp stoves should
either be brought to the park or purchased
from the store that is located in the park.
A concessionaire that sells groceries, gift
items, fishing licenses, fishing supplies and
various other supplies, operates April to midOctober.
Across the park road from the waterfall are
28 picnic sites with tables, stoves and piped
drinking water. Thirteen more picnic sites are
located near Lake Britton.
Six primitive camping sites with pit toilets
are located at Headwaters Campground cross
Burney Creek. Cost for these non-reservable
sites is $15 per night. Camp is open from
mid-April through mid-September.
RECREATION
A self-guided nature trail wanders through
the park and descends through the mist from
the waterfalls to the foot of Burney Falls.
The path continues down the canyon to
Lake Britton, where picnic tables, a boat
launch ramp and sandy beach are located.
Swimming is permitted in the lake, although there are no lifeguards on duty.
Because the bottom of the lake slants sharply
downward, children and non-swimmers
should be especially careful.
Fishing is good in Burney Creek and Lake
Britton, where bass, pike, crappie, brown and
rainbow trout are the most frequently caught
varieties.
Campfire programs and interpretive hikes
are given during the summer months – seasons marked by very warm days and long,
cool nights. The Pacific Crest Trail, which
makes its way from the Mexican border to the
Canadian border, passes through the park.
Two hikes close to the park are recom–Continued next page
Even during drought, falls flow unabated
mended. One is to the north and the other to
the south.
The northern trail is about one- and onehalf miles to Lake Britton Dam. About three
miles further is Rock Creek. Both hikes are
easily negotiated with mostly flat terrain close
to the park.
Topography between the dam and Rock
Creek is mostly an uphill climb. To the south,
over mostly flat ground, it is eight miles to
Baum Lake and Crystal Lake Hatchery.
The hike is recommended as a full day
event, which may include fishing at the lake
and a tour of the hatchery. Other recreation
includes water skiing, canoeing and even
paddle boating, which can be rented at the
Lake Britton concession.
GEOLOGICAL HISTORY
Burney Falls has an interesting geological
and historical past. Perhaps as little as 100
years ago, Burney Falls revealed two landscapes simultaneously. This situation is not
unique to Burney Falls.
In fact, it’s typical of water systems throughout the northeastern part of California.
Although Burney Creek dries up 10 miles
to the south from June to September, Burney
Falls and the spring above it, continue to flow
undiminished year around.
Water temperature remains 48 degrees during the summer and winter. This, along with
other evidence, suggests Burney Creek and
other important regional streams flow into
and out of extensive but little known underground reservoirs.
Geologists believe these underground reservoirs are fed by runoff water trickling down
through gravel filled fissures and fault zones
in the present, volcanic cap rock. First the
water percolates downward until it reaches
the impermeable materials that underlay the
old watershed.
Then, in places like the spring above Burney
Falls, water rushes out of the ground – cool
and refreshing in even the hottest and driest
seasons. During California’s drought of the
late 1980’s, early 1990’s and in recent drought
years, water continued to flow unabated over
the Falls.
NATIVE AMERICAN HISTORY
Native Americans of this region were the
Achomawi who lived along the Pit River as
the Atsugewi who lived along the Hat Creek,
Burney Creek and Horse Creek watersheds.
A Native American trail ran through the
present day park on a northeasterly – southwesterly course, though the immediate vicinity of the park was too densely forested and
too steep for a suitable permanent settlement.
For the most part, relations between Native American tribes and early settlers were
friendly. But trouble began to develop as soon
as mining, timber harvesting, grazing, and
other activities began to disrupt resources
vital to the Native American’s lifestyle.
Salmon disappeared from the streams.
Wild game became scarce. To try and preserve their way of life, Native Americans
fought back.
Their resistance significantly delayed settlement of the region and in 1857, led to the
establishment of Fort Crook in the Glenburn
area. The fort stood about 10 miles north of
the Fall River Mills and was manned until
1869. Today, a marker near the road designates the location.
INDUSTRIAL DREAM
During the 1870s and 1880s some settlers
dreamed of building an industrial empire
utilizing the energy of the Fall River rapids.
However, these dreams were doomed to failure when the railroad could not be induced
to build a line up the Pit River extending into
southern Oregon.
Today citizens of this area no longer dream
of making Fall River Mills into the Cincinnati or Detroit of the west. With its industrial
aspirations safely behind, Pit River country
remains a quiet, sparsely populated and thoroughly delightful area of considerable natural
beauty.
NATURE
The forest throughout the park is made
largely of Ponderosa pine, but also includes
some incense cedar, Douglas fir, white fir,
black oak, willows and black cottonwoods in
the area.
Five-fingered ferns grow in moist places
near Burney Falls, and during the spring and
early summer, wild flowers including tiger lilies, starflowers, monkey flowers, columbines,
lupines, shooting stars, mule ears and many
others. Vine maple, black brush, redbud and
dogwood are some of the shrubs growing in
this area.
A great variety of birds are seen in the park
including one species of particular interest.
Black swifts nest in the cliff behind Burney
Falls between March and October.
Normally seen near the cliffs along the
ocean shore, black swifts can be recognized
by their color, their pointed wings, and the
quick darting, seemingly erratic flight patterns they use to pursue insects.
Bald eagles live in the region with several
active nests in the vicinity of the park.

Ahjumawi Lava Springs State Park
By STEVE MOORE
ust a 45-minute drive east of
Burney Falls, and a boat, canoe,
or kayak ride that could last
much longer, awaits one of the most
unusual experiences California State
Parks has to offer.
Having existed some 40 years,
Ahjumawi Lava Spring State Park
remains remote and relatively
undeveloped. It is still a Park that you
may have all to yourself on almost any
given day. Even if others are around,
you need not go far to have total
solitude.
But solitude is only a minor, even
unimportant, reason to pay Ahjumawi
a visit if you wish to invest the time
and effort, and have or can rent or
borrow a boat for transport. The
riches here that inspire visitors are
many and varied. Some are obvious
and can be described, such as the
abundant waterfowl always viewable
throughout the year.
Some are very subtle and personal,
almost indescribable, such as the
sense of spirit while resting near the
J
native fish traps at Crystal Springs.
The Park was acquired in 1976
partly by purchase, partly by
generous gift, when its former owner,
Ivy Horr, widow of a successful
lumberman and cattle rancher,
recognized its intrinsic values.
One unverified story declares
that she personally contacted State
Parks Director William Penn Mott,
offered the property, and invited him
for a visit to look it over. When he
accepted that invitation, he fell in love
with the place. Finally, 7 years after
acquisition, the Department gave the
Park its intriguing name.
“Ahjumawi” (one of several spelling
variations) refers to the given name
for the California Indian group that
has occupied this part of the State
from pre-history to the present.
Translations also vary from “water
people” to “where the waters come
together.”
“Lava Springs” hints at the dozens
of springs that issue forth from the
basalt lava rock fringing the shoreline.
In fact, the entire 6000-acre Park is an
apron of relatively recent lava flows
(geologically speaking) that support
community of high desert plants and
animals on top, and a virtual lake of
water within. That water squeezes out
slowly at each spring, but collectively
create an aquatic paradise for birds,
fish, and people.
The 25-mile drive from Burney
Falls deep into the Fall River Valley
ultimately places you bouncing and
coughing dust on a graded dirt road
north of McArthur. (Obtain a map and
specific directions from the Entrance
or Ranger Station at Burney Falls).
You finally ease to a stop at a primitive
launch ramp. Looking across the
lapping green waters of the edge of
Big Lake presents a verdant view of
pines, oaks, and juniper a mile to the
north.
The secrets of your destination
await as you navigate your vessel
forth into the scene. Some report
that they experience a passage into a
realm removed in place and time from
the one they just left.
Ahjumawi Lava Springs a gem
among California state parks
A one-day tour could
include:
• Viewing courting Western
grebes racing and diving as
one in Big Lake.
• Paddling up Ja-She Creek
to its source of springs.
• Casting your fly line for
native and wary rainbow trout.
• Looking at the threatened
and endemic Shasta Crayfish
in the shallows.
• Contemplating the system

• Walking a mile past
barren black flows of basalt to
glimpse a small lava tube.
That alone is ambitious
for one day. Nine primitive
campsites, all near the water’s
edge, but set back far enough
to not mar the magic of the
setting, beckon a longer stay
and a deeper exploration.
This Park is not tame. You
may come face-to-face with a
black bear or mountain lion.
Don’t be disappointed if that
doesn’t happen, because you
will definitely during summer
observe abundant insect life,
including close views of the
ones on your arms seeking
nourishment from you. (I think
you can figure out which ones
I’m writing about.). And be
watchful for snakes.
Meanwhile, you may also
witness the graceful soar
of bald eagles, the splash
of diving osprey, and the
cacophony of ducks and
geese that often squabble all
day and night.
Native peoples once made
their homes here. Signs of
their presence are almost
everywhere. Stone dams
that served as fish traps line
numerous springs. Wandering
visitors may stumble across
bedrock mortars, polished
holes in the basalt where
nutritious fine powdery meal
was extracted from the
abundant acorns gathered
nearby.
Worn trails thread through
basalt flows in the rougher
country to the north. Peckings
in boulders in hidden places
suggest an effort to establish
a larger communication over
time.
Some of their descendents
still attest to the sacred
qualities this piece of their
ancestral home holds.
The State Parks
management has recognized
that Ahjumawi, as it exists
today, is a gem with a
multitude of facets. Vehicular
access and modern
developments are unlikely in
the future.
One small development,
thanks to a recent grant, now
consists of a small boat dock
at the shallow shoreline of the
Horr Pond.
Should you go, remain
open to your own experience.
You could come away with a
discovery or observation here
that is uniquely yours.
Some 37 miles are open for hiking and biking of the eventual 80-mile Great Shasta Rail Trail.
GSRT has 2 access points near Burney
By BILL CAMPBELL
he Great Shasta Rail Trail (GSRT)
from Burney to McCloud opened last
fall. The multi-use, year round, red cinder
railroad bed is for non-motorized sports such
as hiking, walking, bicycling, equestrian, and
in the winter – snowshoeing and Nordic skiing. Recreational use is limited to two sections totaling 37 miles of the eventual 80-mile
trail.
The Burney section ends about 10 miles at
the former railroad bridge over Lake Britton.
The bridge was featured in the 1986 movie
“Stand By Me.”
GSRT northern trail access at Esperanza is
approximately 90 minutes from the California/Oregon border and an hour from Burney.
The nearly 26-mile section is from Esperanza
to Bartle Wye to Hambone.
“What an opportunity for the Burney area,”
noted Jill Barnett, president of the Burney
Chamber of Commerce.
“This is the biggest boost to our economy in
T
years! We are working hard to brand our area
as a tourist destination; tourism creates jobs,
doesn’t change our footprint.”
The trail’s gentle railroad gradient winds
through scenic areas of Lassen and Shasta
Trinity national forests and large privately
managed timber stands.
Trail sections are easily viewed where it
intersects with Highway 89 and the Pacific
Crest Trail. Future plans include a connection
to McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State
Park.
Driving a motor vehicle on the trail is
prohibited and unsafe due to railroad spikes
remaining just below the cinder surface.
As trail culverts are repaired and bridges
rebuilt, remote trail sections will open.
The map of the following page identifies
open and closed trail sections.
Trail access locations are:
• Burney Trail head (undeveloped). Primary Burney access is near the intersection of
Highway 299 and Black Ranch Road on the
town’s east side. Parking is near railroad ties.
One-half mile is open from the Burney trailhead to a fence which should open in 2016.
•Sierra access. An alternative access point
from Burney to Lake Britton.
Continue on Black Ranch Road 2.4 miles,
passing Vedder Road. Access location is the
first cinder road that crosses Black Ranch
Road on both sides. The main trail is approximately two-tenths of a mile on the east side of
Black Ranch Road.
• From McCloud drive about 5 miles east
on Highway 89 to Esparanza Road or choose
other access points shown on the map as TH.
Burney travelers might go to Bartle to access the scenic Hambone Spur or to travel
toward McCloud.
Esperanza to Harris Spring Road (Bartle)
is about 12.6 miles. Bartle to Hambone Spur
is 13.3 miles. Some bicycle portage may be
necessary.

National forest has a million acres to explore,
including 3 wilderness areas, lots of lakes
Lassen National Forest offers over
a million acres of land open to a
variety of recreation activities. There
are pine forest, oak woodland, lakes,
streams, and ponds.
The Forest also offers three wilderness areas. All these places provide
great opportunities to explore with
children. The following list includes
activities adults and children might
enjoy this summer.
HAT CREEK DISTRICT
• Subway Cave is a lava tube
formed by flowing lava. Bring a
jacket, sturdy shoes, and a flashlight.
The mile trail is self-guided and
during the summer, guided tours are
offered on Saturday & Sunday.
• Spattercone Trail is a 1-1/2 mile
long trail traversing through the
origin of the Hat Creek Lava Flow.
Best to take this hike early morning
for a cool walk. Best suited for older
children.
• Thousand Lakes Wilderness is a
good place for beginning backpackers. Trails lead you to many small
lakes.
• West Prospect Peak is a great
place to see a fire lookout in operation. The views are spectacular of
Lassen Peak. The 12-mile drive is a
rough one as the road is not paved.
Open during the summer.
• Hat Creek Rim Overlook gives
you a chance to observe an active
fault system that is still “alive and
cracking”, a spectacular view. A good
spot to have a picnic and have fun.
You can walk a portion of the PCT
trail and see the Hat Creek Valley.
• Old Station Visitor Center gives
kids a chance to interact with trout
and discover the aquatic ecosystem
of Hat Creek. Try a real fly spotter
and view the bellies of trout.
ALMANOR RANGER DISTRICT
• The Almanor Recreation Trail
provides nine miles of paved trail
that winds through beautiful forest,
meadows, a campground and several
lakeshore areas. The trail is great for
the beginning naturalist, bike riders,
hikers and swimmers. The trail passes through the campground near a
swimming beach that has a roped off
area, just great for preschoolers and
older children.
• Locherman Canyon Trail offers a
variety of habitats. Deer may be sited
in meadows, woodpeckers in dead
snags, and very old volcanic rock
can be seen.
• Wilson Lake is a nice place for
a short hike. You’ll catch the shade
around the west shore of the lake. A
very shallow lake is home to catfish.
You might even see a bald eagle
fishing there. The east shore is very
difficult to hike because it is covered
with a large lava flow
• Silver Lake, just outside Caribou
Wilderness, is nice for picnicking,
camping, fishing, and hiking.
• Caribou Wilderness is great for
summer exploration. The first part
of the hike into the wilderness is
steep, and then it levels off around
the lakes.
• Ishi Wilderness is the place to be
during spring. You’ll see a variety of
wildflowers.
EAGLE LAKE DISTRICT
• Osprey Trail and Overlook pro-
Horseback riding, biking, hiking,
rollerblading, jogging, boating
vides a great opportunity to see an osprey bird nest close-up. The trail is 1/3
mile long and is full of adventures for exploring and sight-seeing. The trail
has accessible parking near the overlook.
• Eagle Lake Recreation Trail, features an easy 5 miles of level paved trail.
Great for bicycling, rollerblading, jogging or walking.
• Gallatin Beach is a good place for a swim. It provides 1/2-mile-long
swimming area with a sandy beach and is closed to boating.
• Bizz Johnson Trail winds 25 miles from Susanville Railroad Depot to
Mason Station Trailhead, just north of Westwood. The trail provides an opportunity for horseback riding, bicycling and hiking.
• Antelope Lookout is a 1-1/2 mile
drive off of the A-21 road. This graveled road leads you to the first solar
powered fire tower in the United

Boiling Springs Lake in Lassen Volcanic National Park. The park is celebrating its 100th birthday this year.
National Park celebrating centennial
By JON LEWIS
assen Volcanic National Park
is celebrating its 100th birthday and
even though its 10,643-foot-tall, built-in
birthday cake blew its candle out long ago,
this birthday party will continue all summer.
There is plenty worth celebrating: the park
turns 100 years old on Aug. 6 and the National Park Service itself hits the century mark on
Aug. 25. (Lassen Peak itself noted the 100th
anniversary of its eruption on May 22, 2015.)
The park is using the centennial as the
inspiration for a bit of a makeover, according
to Karen Haner, the park’s chief of interpretation and education. “Foremost with the
centennial is helping Lassen Volcanic National Park stay relevant and gain relevancy;
L
we want to connect with new audiences and
let them see what opportunities are here for
them,” Haner said.
On an organizational level, Lassen is using
the centennial as the springboard for its Wilderness and Backcountry Stewardship Plan.
When completed, the plan will guide the
management of wilderness and backcountry
within the park, including recreational opportunities, cultural resources, trail use and
camping.
The big birthday year also is a chance to
attract more kids to the park. The numbers
of young visitors has declined a bit in recent
years, Haner said, so park officials have been
hard at work to reverse that.
One big step in that direction is Volcano
Adventure Camp, a repurposed campground
designed to introduce underserved kids to the
joys of camping and learning in an outdoors
environment. A ribbon-cutting ceremony is
scheduled for Aug. 6.
Volcano Adventure Camp will be available
to school groups in the spring and fall, and
to other organizations as well. Permanent
tent cabins and picnic pavilions will make
camping less equipment-intensive and young
visitors can focus on leadership skills, ecology, map-and-compass work “or whatever
the organization wants to draw from,” Haner
said. “It’s a neat opportunity for them.” The
Lassen Park Foundation has a scholarship
program to help offset the cost of the camp.
Activities planned to
celebrate centennial
at local national park
The great eruption
of the 10,643-foottall Lassen Peak
on May 22, 1915. A
little more than a
year later, Lassen
Volcanic National
Park was established on Aug. 6,
1916. The National
Park Service itself
hits the century
mark on Aug. 25.
“Another really cool effort, besides connecting with youth and preserving the wilderness,
is we want to create opportunities and support scientific and cultural research to help us
learn more about Lassen and its surrounding
environment by using it as a natural laboratory,” Haner said.
The Astrobiology Student Intern Program
involving NASA and Red Bluff High School
is a good example of the research possibilities
at the park. Students and scientists are looking at the “extremeophile” life forms found
in Lassen’s hot and acidic geothermal pools
to find comparison to possible life forms on
Mars, which may have presented a similarly
hostile environment.
Humboldt State and other colleges also are
involved in similar research on the bacteria
that live in the extremely hot and acidic waters, Haner said. “The study of these different
life forms is very fascinating,” she said.
Despite combining some of the best elements of both Yosemite and Yellowstone
national parks, Lassen has remained one of
the best-kept secrets in the country’s national
park network. Haner said Lassen officials
hope the yearlong Centennial activities help
change that.
“We’d like to see more tourists find Lassen.
There’s still quite a bit of room for people to
visit. And we’d like local community members to come back to the park and use it, to be
a visitor and a steward.
“There are some people in our community
who have never been to Lassen. They don’t
realize what a wonderful thing we have right
here. They don’t have to travel hundreds of
miles.”

The 44 turbines on Hatchet Ridge
power the equivalent of 44,000 homes
By BILL CAMPBELL
atchet Ridge Wind farm is one of Shasta County’s most visible
sites that intrigues people.
In excellent weather conditions, a keen eye can spot the 44 turbines
sitting atop 5,453-foot Hatchet Ridge from a few Redding locations.
Topping California Highway 299 Pit One grade west of Fall River
Mills, the array of wind turbines is an expansive view as the 263-foot
high towers cross seven miles of the mountain’s top.
Standing atop Hatchet Ridge summit, a person can see Mount
Shasta, Lassen Peak, Burney Mountain and in the distant west, Trinity
Alps Mountain range.
Standing next to a turbine tower, the bottom of a 148 foot blade is
115 feet above a visitor’s head.
Dedicated in 2010, the wind farm attracts inquisitive tourists and
residents. Only group tours conducted by Pattern Energy employees
are offered to the public. Advance reservations can be made by emailing [email protected]. Schools and civic groups are the usual
guests.
Ken Hammon, regional manager, encouraged Burney Chamber
of Commerce and the Rotary Club of Burney-Fall River to organize
group tours for local residents.
He stated the major concern for anyone visiting the site is safety
from falling objects. For example, this winter, ice broke a vehicle win-

hard hats to protect group members officially touring the site. Because
of the danger, unescorted people are discouraged from viewing turbines at a close distance.
Official tours are way to view wind turbines

from the ground to the hub, the equivalent of
climbing a 17-story building.
The second video offers a space shuttle like
view of the surrounding mountains when the
hub’s sides open, similar to a spacecraft work
bay. The mountain vistas are multiple Kodak
moments.
During the past six years, the major upgrade was flaps attached to each turbine blade
to increase power output. Hammon said the
attachment operates similar to an airplane
wing flap.
Three wind patterns are prominent on
Hatchet Ridge. Each turbine is electronically
controlled to search for wind and will shut
down when it reaches the maximum programmed wind speed.
Power generated from Hatchet Ridge enters
the Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) power
grid located on-site. The 44 turbines power
the equivalent of 44,000 homes annually, Pattern Energy documents state.
Access to some Hatchet Ridge secondary
roads is restricted because they are located on
private land.
The future of additional wind turbines atop
regional mountains is uncertain. Years of meteorological testing is required to determine
if sufficient wind is regularly generated at a
prospective site.
Currently, Iberdrola has meteorological
towers in the Montgomery Creek and Round
Mountain areas. According to Bill Walker,
Shasta County planning department manager,
this is the only company currently authorized
to conduct such tests in Shasta County.
An Iberdrola spokesman stated the company has tested for two years and will likely
test an additional two years before making a
decision.

Free guided tours of radio telescope observatory require prearrangement; self-guided tours Monday-Friday
Visitors welcome to view telescopes
By BILL CAMPBELL
he area is dark and quiet at night.
Faint illumination falls from a star
filled sky and bright moon.
The area is light and quiet during the day.
Quiet is the preferred ambient sound in this
research facility.
Hat Creek Radio Observatory (HCRO)
radio telescopes listen for extraterrestrial
intelligence in distant solar systems.
The 42 telescopes are approximately 20 feet
wide and 22 feet high and may be looking
100 sextillion miles (that’s a 1 followed by 23
zeroes) into the sky. Yes, the number is accurate, according to former graduate students.
The Allen Telescope Array began operating
in 2007 following an initial donation from
Microsoft cofounder Paul Allen.
The observatory was collaborative project
between the University of California, Berkeley and Search for Extraterrestrial Intelli-
T
gence (SETI) Institute. In 2012, the university
divested their interest in the research facility
due to funding issues.
The observatory is located about three miles
east of Highway 89, all the better to minimize
interference, although cell phone signals from
vehicles driving the primary highway have
been detected.
Driving south from the intersection of
Highways 89 and 299, turn left onto Doty
Road in Hat Creek, near the former Hat
Creek Playhouse, Maacooatche Store and Hat
Creek post office.
Travel Doty Road about one mile, then
turn left at the small directional sign which
states the observatory is an additional 1.8
miles. The address is 42231 Bidwell Road,
Hat Creek.
Visitors are welcome to walk around the
grounds to view the telescopes and read the
kiosks between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m., Mon-
day through Friday. The observatory is closed
President’s Day, Memorial Day, Fourth of
July, Labor Day, Thanksgiving (and following
Friday), and generally from Dec. 23 through
Jan. 1.
Kiosks are educational and provide an
overview of radio astronomy and the HCRO
to the self-guided tourist.
Guided group tours require prearrangement
by calling the observatory at (530) 335-2364.
All tours are free.
The former Stanford Research Institute
(SRI) indoor lab may be closed on some
Fridays. Call in advance to tour the lab on a
Friday.
When paired with a tour of Hatchet Ridge
Wind farm, you saw two, free man-made attractions not usually available at most vacation locations. And, generally there are no
crowds to fight; pace is slower and ambient
noise quieter.
Opportunities for fishing, hiking,
camping, picnicking, viewing wildlife
Lassen National Forest lies at the heart of
a fascinating part of California, a crossroads
of people and nature. This is where the Sierra
Nevada granite, the volcanoes of the Cascade
Range, and the lava flows and faulting of the
Great Basin and Modoc Plateau meet and
blend to form a variety in terrain, geology,
plant and animal life and rich human history.
The Forest offers many opportunities for
relaxation, discovery and adventure. The U.S.
Forest Service invites visitors to explore and
discover what this unique area has to offer.
This mini visitor guide highlights our campgrounds for the year 2007.
MAJOR RECREATION AREAS
HAT CREEK
In the shadow of Lassen Peak, six campgrounds and four picnic areas are nestled
along ten miles of Hat Creek. There are
opportunities for fishing, hiking, camping,
picnicking and viewing wildlife. Hat Creek
also has lava tubes, dormant and extinct volcanoes, massive lava flows and fault lines that
reveal an exciting volcanic past.

30 YEARS AGO
The film Stand By Me was released Aug. 8, 1986
Famous scene where the boys outrace a locomotive across a trestle was filmed at Lake Britton
on the McCloud River Railroad, near McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State Park
T
he film Stand By Me celebrates 30
years on Aug. 8, its limited release date
in 1986.
It was just a year earlier during a warm twoweek stay in the Intermountain area when
the movie crew filmed the scene in which the
boys outrace a locomotive across a trestle at
Lake Britton on the McCloud River Railroad,
Black and white photograph taken during a break
in the filming of Stand By Me by Craig Harrington
Color photographs courtesy of Columbia Pictures
near McArthur-Burney Falls Memorial State
Park.
That iconic footage is arguably the most
well remembered scene from the comng-ofage film directed by Rob Reiner.
Stand By Me opened in 16 theaters in that
limited release and grossed $242,795, averaging $15,174 per theater, according to Internet
Movie Database (IMDb). The film then had
its wide opening in 745 theaters on Aug. 22
and grossed $3,812,093, averaging $5,116
per theater and ranking #2. The film’s widest release was 848 theaters, and it ended up
earning $52,287,414 overall, well above its $8
million budget, IMDb notes.
Based on the novella “The Body” by Stephen King, the story focuses on four young
boys (actors Wil Weaton, the late River
Phoenix, Jerry O’Connell and Corey Feldman) who live in a small woodsy Oregon
community during the early 1960s. They go
Films, music video, commercial
among projects drawn to the area
on a hiking trek in search of a missing teenager’s dead body that is
rumored to exist.
After filming most of the movie in Oregon, the crew of Stand By Me
moved their production to the Intermountain area in August of 1985
for the final two weeks shooting.
Many scenes from the very successful film were shot in the Intermountain area. But probably the most spectacular and the most
remembered was the train sequence, in which the young boys literally
ran for their lives along the train track bridge, several hundred feet
above the ground and with nowhere to go but in the same direction as
the oncoming locomotive.
After, what seemed an especially long and exasperating time of
evading the train, the boys finally reached a point where they were
able to dive out of the way of the oncoming locomotive to safety.
The scene was shot on the McCloud River Railway trestle that
crosses Lake Britton east of the Highway 89 bridge.
Another sequence that was shot for Stand By Me in the Intermountain area was grocery store scene in which one of the boys (Wil Weaton) goes into a store to get his cohorts and himself some food.
This scene was shot in the former Maacooatche (pronounced Mawco-watch-ee) Store, located on Highway 89 in Hat Creek.
While not exactly the Hollywood of northern California, the Intermountain area has, nonetheless, been the scene for some of the film
industry’s other major motion pictures, in addition to commercials
and music videos.
Among the films that were partially shot in this area in and around
Burney Falls include:
LIVIN’ ON THE EDGE
A section of the same McCloud Railway line was featured in the
1993 music video for Aerosmith’s “Livin’ on the Edge.”
In the scene, guitarist Joe Perry plays a solo in front of an oncoming
train (filmed using special effects), stepping off the tracks at the last
second. The owner of the railroad was highly criticized by his peers in
the rail transportation industry for allowing the filming. Their belief
was such a depiction would only encourage others to attempt a similar
stunt.
The bridge across Lake Britton and the McCloud Railway train are
featured for 39 seconds starting at 2:19 from the beginning of the video. Directed by Marty Callner, the video was praised for its groundbreaking theatrical scenes and special effects. The popular video for
the song earned the band a Viewer’s Choice award at the 1993 MTV
Video Music Awards. The video was also voted “Best Video” by Metal
Edge readers in the magazine’s 1993 Readers’ Choice Awards.
WILLOW
The George Lucas production of a film directed by Ron Howard is
an epic adventure dealing with the age old adage of good versus evil in
a time and place where the good “little people” and the wicked villains
engage in battle, magic and comradeship.
Principal photography of Willow had been completed in the summer of 1987 (mostly in New Zealand) when location scouts from
Lucas Productions began searching for a “lush green area with a waterfall and a creek running through it.”
They were going to shoot a couple of the remaining live action

segments needed for the film. What better place for them than
McArther-Burney Falls Memorial State Park?
On Oct. 23, 1987, several of the “little people” (a few of whom had
been Ewoks in the third installment of the Star Wars trilogy, Return of
the Jedi) and the second unit production crew ventured out to Burney
Falls to film the few remaining sequences needed for Willow.
One of the sequences that was shot there and which was seen in the
film (for a few seconds, anyway) was the part where the “little people”
walk past a beautiful waterfall with large mountains in the background.
Well, the falls are Burney, but the mountains were a matte painting;
a post-production visual trick of Hollywood.
Something the director wants to exist “live” but doesn’t exist “live,”
so he and the producer commission someone else to “draw it in.”
In other words, the commissioned person, known as a matte artist,
paints an item the director wants to see in the film (in this case, the
mountains) over the portion of the frame not occupied by the important live action so that what the director had visualized for the shot
can exist. Got it? No matter.
The important thing is that the falls in the movie really are Burney
Falls. Just don’t blink.
Also filmed at the same location was a portion of the scene at the
beginning of Willow where the baby, alone in the bassinet, is carried
away by the river current.

The News website burneyfalls.co
The baby is seemingly doomed to a perilous fate of no return and
no rescue. Of course we know better of the little one’s fate. Part of that
scene was shot in Burney Creek at the point where it flows away from
the base of Burney Falls and into Lake Britton.
FIREFOX
The film Firefox, starring, as well as produced and directed by Clint
Eastwood, deals with a top U.S. pilot (Eastwood) who is commissioned by the government to sneak into Russia and steal from the
Soviets the most advanced plane ever built – a plane code-named
Firefox.
Eastwood shot much of the opening sequence of the film in 1981 on
his 3,000-acre ranch in and around the Cassel and Hat Creek area.
Although the sequence supposedly took place in the vicinity of
Alaska it was, in fact, shot right here in the Intermountain area. Lassen Peak is also shown as well.
TARZAN’S FIGHT FOR LIFE
Burney Falls is featured in this 1958 film Tarzan’s Fight For Life
starring Gordon Scott (the 11th actor to portray Tarzan), Eve Brent,
Rickie Sorensen, Jil Jarmyn, and Cheeta the chimpanzee. The picture
was the second Tarzan movie released in color, and the last to portray the ape man speaking broken English until Tarzan, the Ape Man
(1981). The filming locations also included Africa and Hollywood,
California. It appears scenes also included filming on Hat Creek and
the Pit River.
THE TREASURE OF LOST CANYON
This 1952 film starring William Powell and Rosemary DeCamp was
filmed around the Intermountain area, including Burney Falls, and
further south along the Feather River. A special premiere showing was
held in Burney. The plot centers around young David, orphaned en
route to California in 1870, who falls into the hands of medicine-show
rascal Baltimore Dan. Years later, now a trained thief, he’s adopted
by eccentric ‘Doc’ Brown (William Powell), retired miner and pharmacist. Doc and David become fast friends in their scenic outdoor
rambles. But when they discover a hidden treasure, the idyllic interlude gives way to more troubles and a strange coincidence.
THE PARSON AND THE OUTLAW
This 1957 film has Billy the Kid (Anthony Dexter) pretending death
at the hands of his friend, Marshal Pat Garrett, (Bob Duncan). Billy
rides away to live in peace under a new name in a far away frontier
town, only to run foul of ruthless empire builder Col. Morgan (Robert Lowery) and his top gun Jack Slade (Sonny Tufts). Billy’s the only
man who can stop Morgan but he turns down the pleas of help from
preacher Jericho Jones (Charles ‘Buddy’ Rogers), who knows of Billy
and his past, newspaper editor Elly McCloud (Madalyn Trahey) and
her romantic rival Tonya (Marie Windsor). It’s only after the preacher
is shot down trying to stop Morgan’s killers that Billy straps on his
guns. Burney Falls is shown for a few seconds about 4:08 from the
beginning.
MAALOX MOMENT
Also filmed on Burney Creek and inside the park in the early 1980s
was a Maalox commercial. Some outdoorsmen experience a Maalox
moment and their fate in canoeing down the creek and over the falls.
