  • Incline peak take two

    Wow, perfect day on Incline. A little fresh snow, ideal weather, and it doesn’t seem at all like we’re repeating yesterday’s outing. Best turns so far this year. Ann and I both nearly decided not to come up day – sure glad we did. Perfect snowshoeing weather Sculpty snow ridge

  • Hello again Incline peak

    It’s hard to believe today is my first trip up Incline this winter! Our standby is here for us today, maybe not with the greatest snow, but certainly rideable. Much less windy than expected too – seemed windier in town. Distant windstorm from Incline peak Us on Incline peak Ann's summit nook

  • What did we find on Chickadee ridge?

    Snow at last! And Chickadees. Chad and I stayed on very mellow slopes while the new snow is stabilizing, making creamy turns in the trees. On our third lap one of my skins fails, and we call it a day. Temperatures soar, and the highway is covered in water when we get back. Departure Snowy…

  • Relay Ridge Group Snowshoe

    We had a fun super bowl Sunday with friends and new snow! Shoe up! Dave and Jean make the ridge Jean, Dave, Ann, Me

  • Tohakum Ridge Hike

    I expected the mud and snow to thwart Ann, John, and I fairly quickly today, but we got just enough breaks to keep us going to the ridge! I had even worn my Chacos thinking that I wouldn’t be spending too much time in the snow. The final summit scramble looked a little more serious…

  • Enjoying the drought with friends at Church’s pond

    My dad and friends join us for a fine amble in sunny warm weather. Girls team on the ridge Dad on the ridge Group with me This outing is part of my Truckee Meadows Trails Challenge effort.

  • South Adams Peak Hike

    Our second trip to the Diamond Mountains is more successful than our first, but we still don’t quite make it to the summit we’re aiming for. We do make it to the slightly lower southern summit of Adams peak, and get a good feel for the area. We even find some snow on the north…

  • Halo Air Conditioning Run

    The wind on the return trip led Chad to scream as he approached me, “This is like a whole new sport!” The stay on the trail game. I had a ball. I think the entire run was on good single track, and we had it entirely to ourselves! I wonder why? image This outing is…

  • Tule Peak Hike

    Our friend Brian proposes a Tule Peak hike and Ann immediately says yes – it seems like the perfect idea for another day in the clear skies of our persistent high pressure system. The significant climb is graced by a soaring golden eagle, Tule’s interesting volcanic hoodoos, and a large herd of antelope. I’m interested…

  • Dry Pond New Year’s Day Hike

    We try for a peaceful New Year’s day hike and Dry Pond is just right. The sun is warm, there are a few woodpeckers cheerily tapping away, and some happy hikers as well. Ann hiking in the new year
