Snow!
22 de setembro de 2017, Estados Unidos ⋅ ⛅ 0 °C
I've been hunkered down in this hotel since Wednesday night, because I was running early on my hike. It took 13 days, not the 14 I expected. I can't believe my luck. It snowed in the mountains on Wednesday night, off and on yesterday, and last night also. I know there must be a lot more in the elevations. There are hikers up there still. I would not have been a happy camper.Leia mais

Finish Line
20 de setembro de 2017, Estados Unidos ⋅ ⛅ 11 °C
Right now I'm settled in at the bar at the Montbleu Casino hotel sipping a local beer. Lot different from being out in the woods. My last night went fine. It remained sunny until.the sun went down. I found a camp spot out of the wind for the night, and only ten miles to the finish line. Still had 3 miles to get into town, but it was mostly downhill. Still haven't taken a shower. I needed this beer first.Leia mais

Linda St. Croix No shower???? You must have been drinking that beer alone!

Just took this picture a few minutes ago. It's been real windy since yesterday, but that's good. It cleared the lake, so I could get the pictures I wanted. I've got 4 miles to a campsite for my last night. I cruise into Stateline tommorow. These other pictures were from early this morning. Early morning hiking is the best time for pictures. I was hiking through those mountains on the other side of the lake last week.Leia mais

Mt. Rose Campground
17 de setembro de 2017, Estados Unidos ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
This is a car camping site that is closed for the season. I moved in anyway. I got here at around 2;30 after a lot of climbing in the Mt.Rose Wilderness Area. Great day to hike and enjoy the views all around. This picture is from the top of Relay Peak at 10300 feet. I think it is the tallest point of the TRT. I'm used to the elevations now, so it was no problem. Not much left to see, so I'm hustling to finish up. About 40 miles to go.Leia mais

I had to stop here because it is the only water source for 20 miles. Did 17 today, mostly uphill. Kind of tired. The views got better. A couple of more big climbs tomorrow then it eases up for the rest of the journey. That's Lake Tahoe from the north side. I'm in Nevada now.Leia mais

View of Lake Tahoe
16 de setembro de 2017, Estados Unidos ⋅ ☀️ 12 °C
I've been looking for a great view of the lake for two days. Unfortunately it has been hazy the whole time. Some of it may be smoke from the Oregon fires. The trail has been dull up to now, so I started early this morning to get a sunrise, if I get lucky. I got lucky. Cold this morning with frost in the medows. Moving on. I probably have 5 days left at this pace.Leia mais

Tahoe City
14 de setembro de 2017, Estados Unidos ⋅ ⛅ 11 °C
I'm losing track. After staying at Dick's Lake, I headed on to Richardson's Lake. I realized as I moved on that I had passed the best section of Desolation Wilderness. I stopped there partly because the storms were approaching. I wasn't tired, and should have moved on, but the water sources weren't easy to find. I was bored and decided to just b-line it to Tahoe City, 24 miles ahead. That's unheard of in New England, but very doable in these mountains. I climbed over Barker Pass by the morning, and had generally downhill hiking from there. I made it here by 3pm. Nice little town right on the lake. I picked up my resupply package at the sporting goods store, and checked into the hotel. Got a hiker rate. Real cheap. Having breakfast and should be back on the trail by 8:30. Lots of climbing to get 13 miles done. That's Watson Lake, the next water source. Batteries are charged.Leia mais

Dick's Lake
13 de setembro de 2017, Estados Unidos ⋅ ☀️ 9 °C
Sorry, my phone battery got weak, so I had to hold off on sending out posts. I'll do some catch up now. I had a perfect camping night at Shower Lake, then headed deeper into Desolation Wilderness towards Lake Aloha. It was kind of a tough hike, and longer than I thought it would take. I fell short and landed at a small lake called Tamarack. I setup my tent and got my dinner ready just as the thunderstorm hit. Lots of lightening too. I was dry in my tent, and just fell asleep..I was tired. The storm hung out for a couple of hours and move on, so it was sunny the next day. I hiked by Lake Aloha in the morning with beautiful sunshine. I didn't hang too long because I had to get over Dick's Pass before the afternoon storms arrived. I barely got over it when the rain and hail started. I hiked 2 miles to Dick's Lake. Big thunder and lightning that afternoon. I managed to get my tent up without getting too wet. I liked it there the next morning when the sun came out.Leia mais

Ok, This was the last picture I got before my battery got low. I explained this spot already. Google it. Everyone talked about this place, but I found the terrain and lakes before and after Dick's Pass much nicer. Around the thunderstorms I saw the most beautiful terrain early in morning. I got pictures and videos on my real camera, so all is not lost.Leia mais

Shower Lake

Perry and I got up as soon as we saw sunlight. My tent and sleeping bag got wet from condensation, so I was taking longer to pack up. He left ahead of me with a plan for me to catch up when he took a long lunch. I get going and before long I came across Colin going the wrong way again. He said he had to get back home for some emergency. I wished him luck and hiked on. I got to the juncture where the Pacific Crest Trail meets the TRT, and went the wrong way. Long story, but some PCT kids set me straight. I kept hiking realizing I wasn't going to catch Perry. I got over it quickly and went back to hiking my own hike. I ended today early with 8 or so miles and decided I like Shower Lake. I took a swim... A little cool, and got a nice picture to send. Yes, it's real. The first picture is Shower Lake. The second is just a sample of the scenery I've been looking at all day.Leia mais
