Wow, that was a big effort for you to climb up to Little Mt. Hoffman fire lookout - but definitely worth it for the views!

This tour had some memorable and strenuous side trips. Kearsarge Pass and Red's Meadow were planned in advance. The Crater Lake Garfield Peak hike was planned. All the hot spring detours were planned.
I wanted to hike the the summit of Lassen Volcano but that trail was closed because of a fatality. A kid climbed on a retaining wall, which fell down and killed him. I did a pretty good alternate hike, though. I do think this was a very well rounded trip. Many things besides cycling.

The gold stains are minerals in the hot spring water. It's hard to scrub off, and comes right back.

It's probably $40 now. This was 15 years ago.

Interesting - I haven't heard of "tufa formations".

Great you could find a nice free campsite! :) And to have it along a creek is even better!

You plan out very good bike trips. :) It must take you a while to do all the planning!

That was a great deal you had with the $20 all you can eat dinner and music provided!

Wow, the Devil's Postpile is very interesting looking! Looks like a bunch of trees or telephone poles!
