Description
This singletrack heads through shaded woods and up a modestly sloped spiral trail to the top of Chamise Hill for views of the Shasta Dam, Sacramento River, and Lassen. Though you'll be climbing to the peak, gentle grades make this a manageable route. Plus, the views at the end are worth the effort!
