   The GO Road: Struggle for the Sacred High Country

In the Klamath region of northwestern California, Native Americans have an unbroken spiritual connection with the Siskiyou Mountains.

There is a mountain so huge that the Himalayas appear as a tiny speck. Normal mountains run toward her when she calls. They turn upside down when they get close, they're so excited. This mountain is secretly hidden inside you. On this mountain, everything is made new again. Looking out from this mountain, normal ideas and language and the phrase "each other" don't make any sense. Sitting on this mountain, you are like a jewel set in silver, knowing that's where you always wanted to be...
