This is great advice, as several others have mentioned.  But on a
somewhat nit-picky tangent:  Shasta isn't one of the Siskyous, it's
the southernmost of the Cascades.  Unless I'm way off base, the 
Cascade peaks (Shasta, Hood, St. Helens, Ranier, Baker, and the one 
I can never remember in southern Oregon) are volcanic; the Siskyous 
aren't.  Maybe some geology expert could fill in the details here?

Crystal's right though about the location, and about the advisability
of chains.  (I've travelled the road at least 3 times in winter, and
although I've only needed them once I was happy they were there each
time.)
