For those ambitious folks out there this summer you might want to include Kings Creek Falls in Lassen Volcanic National Park on your expedition list. Those familiar with Lassen Park, one of the major picnic areas on the Loop Highway is Kings Creeks Meadows. The creek, meadows and waterfall was so named for James and Jane King who in the 1870s had a squatters claim to the property, but never followed through the federal land patent process to acquire it. In 1879, their son Oscar was born at the meadows, making one, if not the first Anglo born child in what is known as Lassen Park today.
