Shasta Springs - Resort Midway on the Route of a Thousand Wonders
 

Approaching Shasta Springs from the South (West on the SP)

 

 

Stop and Sample the mineral water

 

 

 

Your Train will make a brief stop to allow resort guests to detrain and passengers to taste the sparkling water.

 

 

 

It must be hard to stay on the platform instead of sampling the water or trying your luck with the trout in the river.

 

The water was bottled in the building to the left of the log cabin depot, the cable car climbs out of the building on the right

 

 

Approaching Shasta Springs from the North (East on the SP), the first thing you see is the bottling plant

 

 

Stop and Sample the mineral water, or ride the cable car to the resort at the top of the hill

 

 

Your Train will make a brief stop to allow viewing of the springs and passengers to taste the sparkling water.

 

 

 

It must have been the minerals in the water that turned the fountain so orange...

 

 

The thoughtfully covered viewing platform keeps guests dry amidst all the water

 

 

The buildings at the Springs changed over the years, was it due to modernization or fire?

 

 

 

The resort is at the top of a steep hill, a trail leads to the top through the rushing waters

 

 

 

The cable car is the quickest way to the resort at the top of the hill and the view is spectacular

 

 

Your friends hiking the trail can take a memorable portrait of your cable car ride

 

 

Each morning the  mountain slope is bathed in sunlight, but afternoons in the canyon can be chilly.

 

 

 

The station below grows smaller as you near the top

 

 

 

Top of the Hill

 

 

All activities at the resort revolve around the club house

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Guests stay in the cottages under the trees, clustered near the club house.
