the 7.3 diesel in our f550 blew on mt ashland 4 weeks ago...
we got a tow to yreka where the ford dealer installed a new engine... yesterday we returned to yreka and picked up the f550 and headed back to skankromental...
we took the 89 from dunsmuir to lassen...
it was clear in yreka... but shasta was getting smoked out...

89 smokey 20 miles west of lassen...

at 5000 feet with lassen towering above us... completely obstructed by smoke...

more shots of the moonlight fire south of lassen...



you gotta eat...
