Fire-Scarred Shasta Historic Park To Reopen

California State Parks
Shasta Historic Park. The buildings were already half-ruined.

The last time Shasta State Historic Park was open was a scary time.  The Carr Fire was bearing down on the park and workers loaded all the portable valuables onto trucks for a trip to Sacramento. 

Only now is the park ready to reopen (on January 25th), minus the Old Schoolhouse, which burned in the fire. 

Park Superintendent Lori Martin and crew spent the last several months making the park habitable again.  

She visits with the info.
