Themed, Guided Explorations of the Greater Yreka Area Began April 19
YREKA, Calif. – May 1, 2023 Siskiyou Historic Tours was formed to educate and entertain anyone interested in the rich history of Siskiyou County, its Gold Rush towns, cultures and traditions. The nonprofit Siskiyou Historic Tours’ upcoming season features guided tours of downtowns, neighborhoods, cemeteries, landmarks, and other highlights of the greater Yreka area.
Newcomers, visitors and longtime locals can learn about the past on upbeat, engaging walking or wagon tours. The nonprofit Siskiyou Historic Tours is created and led by Mike Grifantini, who volunteers as a docent with expertise in Northstate history. “This is Siskiyou Historic Tours’ 5th year, and participation and interest in the tours continues to grow,” Grifantini said. “There are local favorites, such as Miner Street and area cemeteries. Plus, new settings and experiences have been added for the coming season.”
