Lassen in the Snow
January 20th, 2010
Lassen Park Road
Just a quick post tonight to share some pictures. We headed up to Lassen last weekend to get in a quick overnight car snowcamp and some cross country skiing before the big storms rolled in. We got some beautiful fresh snow overnight and got to enjoy some fresh trail-breaking on a ski loop on Sunday. I wish we could have stayed up there all week, enjoying all this precip as snow instead of rain.
I snapped a few photos while we were out there but kept the camera mostly put away due to the wet snow.
One thing I had some fun with was trying out the video mode on my new Panasonic LX3. Got some nice shots of the bubbly and steamy sulphur works:

Great pics, and awesome video from that camera, too!
Great video! I just love that new camera can shoot great video to. Have you tried doing a frame grab from the HD video as a JPEG or TIFF? I have from my Canon and it’s quite astonishing the quality you can get.
Where can you snow camp in/around Lassen? I thought it was completely closed until snow-melt (mid june)?
Wow, nice video, time to upgrade my camera. By the way, we have so much snow in Southern California you could snowshoe for days!
