Northern California National Parks

We enjoyed our first RV trip so much we decided to upgrade our rig and take more. Late Friday, we left for a week long trip down to California, to visit several National Park Sites and have the kids earn Junior Ranger badges. 
 
After staying Friday night outside Klamath Falls, our first stop was Lava Beds National Monument in Northern California. We checked out the visitor center and explored some of the lava tube caves.
We were also able to attend a demonstration by fire fighters while we were there. The kids earned Junior Fire Fighter patches.  
From there we headed down to Lassen Volcanic National Park, where we spent the night. We weren't able to drive through the park because some of the roads were still blocked by snow, but the Loomis Ranger station and the Manzanita Lake campground were open.
