Chaos Crags Lake Trail Lassen Volcanic National Park
The Crags Lake Trail is beautiful, easily accessible and much less crowded than many of the more popular trails in Lassen Volcanic National Park. The trailhead is located in the North West corner of the park between the Loomis Museum and the Manzanita Lake Campground. The first portion of the trail is beautiful in its own right but the most spectacular views start at about the 1.5 mile mark when the trees open up to reveal the towering crags.
The lake was firmed by volcanic activity that created a natural rock dam. Each year as winter gives way to spring, snowmelt runs of the crags and gathers in the lake. Through the summer the water level will recede. In some years it may dry out completely.
You may run into other people while you are out but overall this is a very quiet trail.

Lassen: Manzanita Lake (in HD)
Manzanita Lake is located in Lassen Volcanic National Park, California. Located near the park entrance, the lake is open for fishing and has rainbow, brown and brook trout.
Manzanita Lake was formed when Manzanita Creek was dammed 300 years ago by a rock avalanche from the northwest slope of the Chaos Crags, which also resulted in the debris formation known as Chaos Jumbles.
The area around the lake features the Loomis Museum, a campground, and the Manzanita Lake Naturalist's Services Historic District.

Hiking Broketop Mt in Lassen Park
Lassen park about an hour from Redding CA. Hiking Brokeoff Mt. 9235 ft elevation. With about 2528 ft elevation gain from the parking lot the hike is 6.8 miles to the summit. When I was on the last switchback before the summit the temperature dropped and the snow was getting icy so I didn’t make it to the top. I’ll save that summit for another day. It was the most beautiful day to be in the snow.
