Mt. Shasta (August 10, 2022)

You must be on Mt. Shasta when you meet a hiking guitarist.

The dreaded scree. Luckily there was a clear, flat trail through the rocks around Panther Meadow, a lush green spring-fed meadow surrounded by the volcanic rocks.  Both Native Americans and New Agers treat Panther Meadow as a sacred place. We came upon Native Americans performing a ritual at the spring source so respectfully, quietly walked past them.

I walked the meditation spiral on Mt. Shasta.

Where are the loved one's cremains removed to? I'm sure they cannot be identified and returned to family or friends.
