Bull Lake via Pacific Crest Trail

Bull Lake with Mt. Shasta and Mt. Eddy in background (August 30, 2026)

According to AllTrails, this is an 8-mile, 1,482 feet of elevation gain hike. I clocked in at 8.6 miles and 1,516 feet of elevation gain. Kangaroo Lake is near the beginning of this hike. Driving on paved roads the entire way, you can make it to the trailhead in an hour and forty minutes from Ashland.

Foster Freeze

Foster

I asked A.I. about this photo, and we had a long, bizarre conversation about it. In the end, I learned nothing about this Foster plot. I did however learn about Ray Foster, buried in Oklahoma, who died at just 50 years old when he had a heart attack while eating potato chips he had just purchased. Ray Street, near the above photo, is what led A.I. to believe the Oklahoma Ray Foster is buried in both places.

Anywho, chatting with A.I. is like speaking with an occasionally brilliant child who has a quick, usually incorrect, but always confident, answer for everything.
