The Sierra Mountains in the mirror as I head up Hwy 395 on my way to the Silver Peak Range in Nevada. This five day trip was planned to help Sooz celebrate her upcoming birthday.
Ran into Sooz and Chip in Bishop. This shot was taken at Janie's Ranch a short way into Nevada. We stopped here for a little while to check the place out.
Chip and Sooz on the way up to Red Pass where we'll camp for the next couple of days. Robin showed up a short time later.
Near the pass was this old car.
Like most old vehicles out in the desert, it was full of bullet holes.
This is our camp near Red Pass. The next morning Sooz, Robin and Chip headed off to hike up Red Mountain. I wasn't feeling up to it, so I stayed at camp.
A few hours later it was snowing. Camp was at about 7,300 feet.
Looking towards Red Mountain I could barely make out it's outline. This is after it clear up a bit. A short time before could only see a couple hundred feet.
Chip, Sooz and Robin returning to camp after making it to the summit which can be seen behind them.
A couple hours later the snow was gone.
