It is the Mt. Kailash of the United States in it's attraction of people from literally all over the world. Tour groups (especially summers) when the weather is the nicest there bring their "Spiritual Tours" to Mt. Shasta from Europe, Canada, South and Central America and Asia and everywhere else. For example, today my friend and I met a lady from Montana accompanied by two friends one from Uraguay and one from Florida on a Spiritual pilgrimage to Mt. Shasta. They had driven up the Everitt Memorial Highway to where the Old Ski Bowl used to be up until maybe the 1970s. I hadn't been able to drive there myself because the road has been closed a lot mostly from snow and other reasons the last 2 years or so. But, it opened up this summer so I went to the top of the pavement at around 9000 feet and also walked out onto Panther meadows where there are still flowers and water running down the meadows at one point too. However, at the top of the pavement it was about 40 degrees and windy so if you go now before the road is once again closed at Bunny Flat be sure to bring a coat and a wool hat and sun glasses to protect your eyes from the sun at that altitude.
This place is very powerful and healing and transmutes many things in people's lives to better results, so they come and they come and they come. Even to local Indian native American Tribes there are places sacred to the local 6 Indian Tribes on and around the mountain. So, even before world travelers came to Mt. Shasta 6 of the local Native American Tribes knew this mountain was a very sacred and profound place.
