We were getting the feeling that we were way too early in the season for Lassen Volcanic National Park. The road through the park was still closed and would be for another couple of months. We were camped in Redding, about an hour away from the northern entrance.
We weren't sure what we'd be able to see with pretty much everything still being closed. The road itself closed at the visitor center. It may be spring, but Lassen was definitely still snow covered. However, we decided to take a short hike through the snow and enjoy what we could.
It turned out to be just one of those relaxing days. We stopped at a small restaurant in Burney, the Blackberry Patch Restaurant, on our way back for hot coffee and a late lunch. It was perfect after our snow adventure. Our food was great. The server was fantastic, and the warmed blackberry cobbler was absolutely yummy.
