An overnight trip on the McCloud River to Shasta Reservoir with Dave Steindorf, Ben Ellis, Gary Hull, and Tom O'Keefe. We arranged for a ride to the put-in and got on the water just before 1pm on Saturday. We camped overnight and had a great day of whitewater on Sunday. We arranged for a pontoon boat pick up on Shasta Reservoir around 2pm on Sunday and took about 90 minutes to motor down to a boat ramp on the west side of the McCloud arm of the reservoir. It was a great trip but look out for the poison oak if you get out of your boat.
