After the amazing breakfast at the Pipers, we have just 18.5 miles to Drakesbad Guest Ranch in Lassen Volcanic National Park. Drakesbad takes care of thru-hikers. After serving their paying guests in their restaurant, they bring the food left un-consumed out to hikers on large platters. For a mere $5 (or was it $10?) they fed us all we could eat of the turkey, bread rolls, veggies, bean salad, etc. Joining Jubel and I was Lava Goat, Sierra and Happy Feet (both section hikers).
Before Drakesbad we passed by some incredible volcanic features: geysers, mud pots and boiling springs. Lassen Park is one of the most active of the Cascade Range, which forms one part of the pacific Ring of Fire.
