2025: A Year of Stewardship and Gratitude

A Year of Stewardship and Gratitude

As the year draws to a close, this season invites a moment of reflection on the many experiences we shared outdoors. Our guided walks and field trips offered many chances to learn, connect, and enjoy the places that make Northern California so special. These moments are a reminder of why we care for our environment and why protecting it remains at the heart of our mission.

The beauty of this time of year encourages us to slow down, notice the world around us, and look toward the possibilities of a new year. We hope your holidays are peaceful, restorative, and filled with the sense of connection that nature brings. From all of us at the Shasta Environmental Alliance, thank you for being part of this community and for sharing your love of our region’s landscapes.

A Year on the Trail

Before we step into the new year, we invite you to look back at the journeys we shared outdoors. The map below highlights every educational hike and field trip we hosted this year, from quiet mornings along the river to afternoons exploring our local forests and grasslands.

Each location reflects places where people slowed down, asked questions, and noticed the minute habitat details surrounding them.

Thank you for being part of this year’s adventures, and we look forward to sharing many more in the year ahead.
