Hiking up Cold Creek on Mt. Shasta with friends

The "Awesome" shows up

Towards the end of this I answer a question Jonathan Asked in the above thing on the "Awesome".

Today, Wednesday, August 31, 2016 my friends and I hiked up from through Cold Creek on the Eastern Side of Mt. Shasta. The way to find this place isn't easy unless you know someone in how to get there.

However, this is the best I can do for you here:

Go from Mt. Shasta on Interstate 5 (if you are coming from this direction) otherwise you might get there from 89 if you are coming west on 89 for some reason. So, if you are traveling from Mt. Shasta over 5 to 89 towards McCloud, then you go past McCloud to Pilgrim Creek Rd. Turn left on Pilgrim creek road (you are presently where there are no houses at all for miles and miles and miles). Then you go quite a ways until you see Pilgrim Creek (you are going over a middle little Stream coming down Mud Creek from a Glacier on Mt. Shasta. The reason it's muddy is it is full of volcanic little bits of rock washing down that are ashes and little rocks from volcanic actions several hundreds of years ago on Mt. Shasta. (There appears to be a never ending supply of this stuff so the stream is always muddy looking year around with little bits of volcanic sand flowing down it always.) After you get past the Mud Creek Crossing.

After crossing Mud Creek bridge start looking for a sign that says Clear Creek. Now this is a really terrible and dusty road (because of all the volcanic dirt in the area) so if you don't want to get completely dusted out this time of year you might want to close the windows and put on the air conditioning. I go slow even in my 4 wheel drive so I don't completely destroy my car on the ruts, rocks and sometimes narrow dirt road where it  might be a little scary if you meet another car or truck when you aren't expecting it. When the road finally turns to red dirt you are getting close to where the road splits into the Clear Creek Road and the Cold Creek road both very dirt roads and at this point very rocky at times and dusty. So, unless you have a 4 wheel drive that you actually use as a 4 wheel drive and aren't just having one to look cool this might not be a journey you want to take. However, it is also true that Any car might make it up there too. But, from here on I only could say Cold Creek is to the right up a dirt road and Clear Creek is to the left if you are already about 6000 feet in elevation or so at this point.

Hiking up from the Cold Creek Trailhead. (By the way if you finally get to the right place there is a log across the road and behind the log there is a trail across a stream. If you follow that trail eventually you get up near to where the spring comes out of the mountain at 9000 or 10,000 feet which is pretty amazing following up this beautiful alpine pristine steam up steep slopes. I would recommend good hiking boots but in the past I have climbed all the way up there in Crocs but coming down I was slightly injured in some of the steeper places. So, today I wore my 300 dollar German hiking boots and it was much better. I like hiking boots above my ankle because on this hike you might need to dig your edge of your boots into steep dirt not to fall 30 feet back at an angle so just be careful going up this trail and unless you are really coordinated I wouldn't go there alone because there is zero to no cell reception there. So, keep track of where you are and where you have been so you make it back down safe to your vehicle. Because often there is no one for 10 to 20 miles from you with no cell reception so be prepared for this. This is really remote and if you are not prepared for this you need to think twice about it.

The question gets answered to Jonathan's Question in:The "Awesome" shows up

Ragna: "By the way, Jonathan, the ships are a gift from His Oncness of Lemuria to King Interlaken around 7000 Ad on our 1st timeline in Switzerland. They were a sanctioned gift from  The Galactic Sentience, leader of the whole Galaxy.

"So, the Galactic Sentience wanted you guys to help control time in your era, past, present and future?", said Jonathan.

Ragna: "Yes".

Jonathan: "Yes. All this makes sense on many different levels."
Ragna laughed: "It meets with your approval then?"

Jonathan realized right now he was talking to a very powerful time general and not just a friend.

"I don't really have an opinion either way. It just makes sense."

Jonathan: "This means that it was before His Oneness built Shamballa when he still had 500 colonies on as many different planets."

Ragna: "Yes".

end addition to "The Awesome Shows up"

The reason I placed it here was I found this out today while walking on this very remote trail to a place that is a retreat place for many people I know at 10,000 feet and very remote. I have a friend who considers this the best place on the mountain to do a 40 day water fast. However, he is now 71 and I worry about him dying doing this at this age. But, he has been doing these about once a year since I first met him in the 1970s up here in the Mt. Shasta area.
