Airing down. It's much easier to do when it's not freezing out like last time!

Going to be a dusty one. Alex and his girlfriend were hardcore running doorless and topless.

Heading in to the start of the trail...or so we thought. A slight miscalculation in direction had us on a little bit of a wild goose chase. LoPo had taken us right there but we (read I) thought it we were in the wrong canyon and drove around "searching" for the trail for a while. :doh:
But we had fun nevertheless, it's fairly scenic out there.

Maybe it's in this canyon?

I know it's near some of those red rocks.

Nope dead end.

Another turn around.

Found an old abandoned car blocking the trail in another canyon.

Nice pics, thanks for sharing. Looks a lot more scenic than the last few trails (malls) I went on. ;)

View looking down at Pyramid Lake. The smoke from the Rim fire made the normally pristine view hazy.

Not a bad place to have lunch.
