Bulletin, Progressive, Record, Reporter Wednesday, June 22, 2011 7C Road punched through to Lassen Park Visitors are now able to dri- ve to several attractions with- in Lassen Volcanic National Park. The main park road is open to vehicles from High- way 44 to Devastated Area and opened Saturday, June 18, from Highway 36 to the Bumpass Hell parking area. Park Superintendent Darlene M. Koontz said, "The park road crew has been diligently working the past several weeks to clear snow up to depths of 25 feet along this eight-mile section of the road." The roads to Warner Valley and Butte Lake are open to visitors. As the summer season be- gins and the road opens to this location each year, many visitors are very interested in hiking to the top of Lassen Peak. The later heavy snow storms this past spring have left the peak trail snow-cov- ered and will require anyone wishing to summit Lassen Peak to be prepared for travel- ing over the snow with equip- ment such as skis, snowshoes, ice axes and crampons. This is a popular time for spring skiing and the clear skies combined with warmer weather mfike for exceptional skiing. The peak will remain open to over-the-snow travel only until trail crews are able to begin work for this season. This will be the second year of the Reach the Peak trail reha- bilitation project. Once trail work has resumed, over-the- snow travel on the peak and the trail beyond the first 1.3 miles from the parking area will be closed to all travel. Ac- cess to the upper portion of the trail and summit will only be available on the following dates this summer: July 1 - 4; Aug. 13 - 14; and Sept. 2 - 5. These closures are necessary for the safety of both trail workers and visitors. The ranger-led programs at Lassen Volcanic National Park are kicking off the sum- mer season starting Friday June 17, and will offer a wide variety of programs on the natural and cultural history of the park seven.days a week through Labor Day weekend. There are programs for visi- tors of all ages. Become a junior ranger and explore the forest and lakes on a discovery walk. Go in- side a volcano and learn about fumaroles, mud pots and boiling springs. Meet pio- neers and hear their amazing stories as they travel the No- bles wagon trail in 1853. Dis- cover stars, planets and con- stellations at the Starry Night program. Kick back during Coffee with a Ranger or go on a bird walk at Manzanita Lake. The majority of the campgrounds in the park are already open and ready for overnight visitors. Manzanita Lake, Crags, Lost Creek, Warner Valley and Butte Lake campgrounds are now open to the public. Juniper Lake and Summit Lake camp- grounds remain closed due to snow with an estimated open- ing in early July. Visitors are encouraged to explore the park by foot, snow shoes or skis. "This is a unique opportunity for visi- tors to enjoy both the snow and the warm spring sun," said Koontz. Even though it feels like summer in the val- ley, visitors should still be prepared for possible cold and snowy conditions as moun. tain weather can change quickly. In order to be able adjust to changing weather conditions, it is best for visi- tors to dress in layers and bring blankets, food, water, sunscreen and sunglasses. For campground updates, current road and trail condi- tions and further informa- tion, visit the park website at nps.gov/lavo or contact the Kohm Yah-mah-nee Visitor Center at 595-4480 daily 9 a.m. -6 p.m. Kayakers enjoy Manzanita Lake at Lassen Volcanic National Park. The main park road is now partially open, and many attractions are accessible.

Photo submitted Throwin,j shoes The Indian Valley Horse- shoe Pitchers Association hosted a tournament at the Greenville campgrounds June 11 - 12, which was well supported by players from Reno, in addition to the local horseshoe pitchers. In the top 40-foot group on Saturday, hard working Lee Roy Lassiter took it alI for his first tournament win. Fritz Oberst followed, after the two had a playoff for the title. Indian Valley dominated the 'second 40-foot group, with Jim Atcher taking first, followed by the tough Harry Begay, who is still pitching 40 feet despite turning 82 next month. The top group of 30-foot players was dominated by Nevada. It was won by Jack Porter of Reno, followed by Don Gore of Reno. The second group of 30ers was won by Michelle White of the Indian Valley club. White pitched off and on with the club since she was a junior, and they are glad to have her back. Second place went to Walt Butcher. On Sunday, the tourna- ment winner in the 40-foot group was Rob Roman, fol- lowed by Indian Valley's Gene Washoe. The second group of 40ers was won by Fritz Oberst, followed by Harry Begay. In the 30-foot group, the tournament winner was Don Gore from Reno, followed by Elaine Butcher. Butcher had some super games up in the 70s and pitched very well, but the handicap got her in the last game, as that was all she lost.
