06-Apr-2001 -- Less than 12 hours after finding
41N 122W, the 28 Sacramento Adventist Academy eighth graders, parents and teachers zeroed in on this 5000 ft high desert spot in Lassen county next to a State Game Refuge, 10 miles west of Hayden Hill. We arrived as a spring storm lightly dusted the manzanita and pine hillside. The spot was about 400 yards up the hillside from the road marked "54" just South of Meyers Flat. Only one hour from our overnight stop in the lovely town of Fall River Mills, it is an easy, scenic drive on good cinder roads.
Many thanks to our parent drivers Stuart Bushnell, Bonnie Fandrich, Dave Mack, and Brett Spenst.
Our trip was successful thanks to California Surveying
and Drafting Supplies who provided the topo maps,
Karen Agee who piloted a previsit flyover, the Fall
River Mills Seventh-day Adventist Church and School
for overnight housing, and student Allison Comm, our
digital photographer.
