Lassen Volcanic National Park Superintendent Steve Gibbons announced that the winning entry for the 2017 Lassen Annual Pass photo contest was submitted by Michele Swartout of Red Bluff, California. This wonderful photograph entitled, “American Pika along the Lassen Peak Trail” showcases one of nearly 60 species of mammals found at Lassen Volcanic National Park.

Swartout will receive photo credit and a $50 gift certificate from the Lassen Association to use at one of the park bookstores. The photo will be featured on the 2017 Lassen Volcanic National Park Annual Pass.
