The beauty of Redding: we enjoy temperatures in the 50s during the "winter" but have access to snow in the mountains when we need our fix.

Saturday we trekked up the mountain with our friends Tim and Britt and we can't wait to go back. The scenery, even on the drive up I-5, is so beautiful and much more Pacific Northwest-esque than anything south of Redding.

The mountains were breathtaking and they have feet upon feet of snow. Majestic was the way Tim described it, and that's probably the most appropriate word for it.
