The Lemurians of Mount Shasta: A Visit to the Hidden Country
California's mystic volcano has tenants no census has ever counted. An inquiry into where they live, how they live, why they live, and what happened when I went up to ask. Drive north out of Redding on Interstate 5 and the land begins rehearsing for something. The pines close ranks, the grade climbs, and then the forest opens and the mountain is simply there: fourteen thousand feet of snow and andesite standing alone above the valley floor, keeping no company on that horizon, rising nearly ten thousand feet above everything around it. Joaquin Miller saw it in the 1850s and gave it the sentence it has never escaped: "Lonely as God, and white as a winter moon."

With the numerous crossings he’d made, the border patrol already knew him. The search was more punishment than serious. They made the cursory search, which included a drug-sniffing dog, but the lockbox stayed hidden.

“I’m a citizen of life, man,” he replied with a bit of an edge. “God’s my guide.”

Bounty’s calling was full of mortal undertones, but The Prospector was determined that when he died it would be here in Baja. The lazy, hot days, the cool water, and walking on the beach was the way to end it. He wanted to die after watching the sun setting over the Pacific, drinking his last beer on the beach with his dog, Cora, by his side.
