This place books solid every year. Restored historic firetower on Girard Ridge near Mt. Shasta.

I got this reservation for this weekend a long time ago and can't use it. Top of the world views, miles and miles of fireroads. Would make for an amazing mountain bike destination. Near Shasta, Upper Sac River, Castles Crags, etc.

150 for the weekend. It's going to cost me to cancel, so I would prefer to put the cancellation money towards subsidizing someone on here if it made a difference.

Wish I had time off to help you out with this! Smile

About a week ago there was someone posting he was going to make a trip up that way...?

Looks like a super place, nice of you to offer it.

Maybe post on the Karma thread?

Funny little twist...to cancel it was going end up costing 100 of the total 160, because I was within 14 days. But it only cost 10 to push the reservation into late october (a sunday/ monday). Now, as long as I cancel outside of 14 days, I only forfeit 30 of the 160. luv the gov...that loophole wouldn't last in private enterprise.

So, its still available if someone wants it, but its a sunday/monday, (oct. 23/24).
