Love your photos of the wocus (yellow water lilies) -- they're also abundant in the Klamath Basin, where we spend a lot of time kayaking -- the seed pods were a primary food source for the Klamath Indians (and are still used by the tribes). Thanks for the great hiking tips!Laurel (www.ravenandchickadee.com)https://www.blogger.com/profile/09133248112440273123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5213114113819017671.post-63015174572497647772014-05-27T12:25:08.696-07:002014-05-27T12:25:08.696-07:00What a nice hike!

We've been through there three times, and our only impression of the area was of many cars and somewhere we wanted to leave. Guess we'll have to reconsider this area.

Now I have a reason to not just drive through Carson City, it is beautiful and I would like to go to that Rock Lake. <br />Our mountains here do not have snow dusting, but still as beautiful as the ones you are on, in the west.

I will need to spend a little longer next time through, when hopefully it will be a little warmer and a whole lot less windy! <br /><br />So glad your truck is back in fine shape!
