Spring in Siskiyou County is on it’s Way!

Fri, 03/12/2010 - 10:10am

As days grow longer thoughts are turning to water and the upcoming rafting season. Should be a good one as El Nino conditions continue to prevail. The water content of the Sierra Nevada and Cascade Range snowpack is well above normal. Anticipate exciting spring whitewater and strong flows throughout the summer.

If you’ve been putting way too many hours on the job and need to clear your mental desktop…. try something wild for a change. Learn the ropes of running whitewater rapids and captaining a raft.

Fly Fishing on the Klamath and Upper Sac

Sun, 02/21/2010 - 6:20pm

Trips on Northern California Rivers

February 9th – 15th

What a week!  We started out with an epic afternoon on the Pit River which during any other time of year would have been fantastic.  To experience catching fish after fish in the dead of winter was just too good to believe.  On an afternoon on the Upper Sac we did not have the epic proportions, finding fewer fish but all were sizable, most well into the teens.

This week the bite on the Klamath turned on for us as well, particularly when we swung flies, on a few runs we enjoyed multiple grabs. We are in the midst of prime time with increased water temps and spring like weather.  Just before the weekend, Scott and George found several fish including a couple brutes.

Fly Fishing Guides in the Mount Shasta area have some of the most challenging wading on the planet.  Rivers including the Pit, McCloud and Upper Sacramento are located in canyons with steep gradients creating strong currents which combined with bowling ball sized slippery rocks offer a great testing ground for waders, boots and wading staffs.

The Weekend Skiing Forecast: 1/28/2010

Thu, 01/28/2010 - 3:47pm

After last week’s record-setting snowfall, the Mount Shasta Ski Park is operating everything – and the snow is fabulous.

With 12 feet of snow on the mountain, clear skis, and everything operating, it’s a perfect time for skiers to pack their gear and head to Mount Shasta for some seriously perfect ski conditions.

Backcountry skiers are advised that while conditions are generally good, there is still avalanche danger, and a visit to the Avalanche Center’s Web site is probably in order before heading up the mountain.

That said, there are tons of new (and fast) snow waiting for those willing to earn their turns on Mount Shasta.

The town and the ski park – after suffering some power outages last week – are operating again, and ready to make your stay in Siskiyou County a wonderful experience.
