There were 7-8 of us this year with many of the usual cast missing. Chuck was alone in cabin 3 as Lee is off to Virginia with a fellowship to a interdisciplinary program at the Mellon estate sponsored by the Oak Spring Garden Foundation. John and Delia stayed in cabin 4. Donita, Linda, Jennifer and I had rooms in the lodge and Susan came for just Wednesday and Thursday, staying in cabin 1.
07-8 Old Hwy 88
We took nearly 4 hours to walk the 2 miles. There was so much to see!!

07-09 from Schneiders to the Ridge
Because we had only one high clearance vehicle, we parked before the last downhill section to the trailhead and walked that extra quarter mile. Other wise it was very much as we have done in previous years. Up to the ridge and then north so we got a view of Tahoe and (this time) Showers Lake. About 3.5 miles

07-10 Carson Pass to Meiss Col and beyond
This was the usual walk plus wander; mileage was at least 4 trail miles but add more for wandering about.

07-11 Woods-Winnemucca-Roundtop Lk- Lost Cabin Mine Tr
Up to Winnemucca, then just a bit further to find the Marsh marigolds, heather and Sierra primrose. Right! We ended up at Roundtop Lake and then went down Lost Cabin Mine Tr. 4 1/2 miles by trail, but, again, LOTS of wandering.
