Lassen Volcanic National Park - Hiking

Dormant volcanoes, mud pots, boiling lakes and spectacularly green meadows - hiking Lassen Volcanic National Park is like hiking two parks in one - the peaks and slopes of wild mountains and the fascinating strangeness of active geologic activity. It's like hiking the Rockies and exploring Yellowstone at once.
