Lassen Volcanic National Park does not have the popularity among the National Parks in the United States, but it definitely should not go unnoticed. This park is filled with volcanic features and hydrothermal activity with surrounding peaks! It also features a lot of backpacking opportunities and the PCT (Pacific Crest Trail) runs through it!)

But like all National Parks, there are things for everyone to do. Short hikes, longer hikes and backpacking trails. And did I mention [...]
