テハマ郡の天然記念物・トップ6

North Yolla Bolly Lake is a small lake just below the peak of North Yolla Bolly. The climb to the lake can be difficult, making it a worthwhile reward. Camping is not allowed within 100 feet of the water.

"This moderately difficult section of the PCT takes one through one floriferous rock garden after another, interspersed now and again by shady, cool pine-fir forest. Every color of the rainbow was represented in these rock gardens, some of which were perched on hillsides, others on open ridgelines with expansive views." https://shasta-cnps.org/humboldt-summit-to-little-cub-spring-july-10-2022/

The tallest remaining portion of the eroded andesitic stratovolcano, Mount Tehama, Brokeoff Mountain has the second-highest elevation in the park, behind Lassen Peak, which is connected to Brokeoff Mountain, geologically, and can be seen from the summit.

Fed by the convergence of East Sulphur Creek and Bumpass Creek, Mill Creek Falls is the highest waterfall in the park, plunging 75 feet.

Enjoy the view at these stunning volcanic rock formations that are more impressive than the area in Lassen volcanic National Park that the PCT will lead you to.

The PCT straddles the ridge between the Butt Creek watershed to the east and the Cub Creek drainage to the west.

Brokeoff Mt is the second highest point in the Lassen Volcanic National Park. It sees year-round activity because of it’s easy access from Highway 89. The round trip from the trailhead (approximately 6,600’) to the summit (9,235ft / 2814m) is 7 miles on the summer trail, and about 6 miles during the winter with a direct snow approach. The southern slopes offer excellent ski and snowboard descents all the way to the car on moderately steep pitches. Views from the summit are of Mt Shasta to the north and Mt Lassen to the northeast. Brokeoff Mt is the furthest west mountain in the park and is adjacent to the parks Southwest entrance. It is three miles southwest of Lassen, and connected to it via a ridgeline. This ridge linking Brokeoff and Lassen includes Mt Diller, Pilot Pinnacle, Ski Heil Peak and Eagle Peak. It is possible to make a ridgeline traverse linking Brokeoff to Lassen. This traverse would involve a few technical sections. Brokeoff Mt is one of the last remaining remnants of a large volcano called Mt Tehama that was at it’s maximum height and girth around 300,000 years ago. Mt Tehama was a stratovolcano that was about 11,000’ and similar in size and shape to Oregon’s Mt Hood. Because of it’s existence during the Ice Age, Mt Tehama was heavily carved away by massive glaciers which left only fragments from Brokeoff Mt to Mt Conard to the east and Mt Diller to the north. The glaciers left Brokeoff with an impressive vertical north face with an appearance that half of the mountain ‘broke off’. https://www.summitpost.org/brokeoff-mountain/150928
