OK! After doing final grading for the Music History class,
here
we
go,
up
into
the
high
country
on
80,
over
the
Sierra,
down
Truckee
River
Canyon,
past
Florrisant
and
Farad,
into
Nevada,
across
Reno
Valley,
drawing
ever
closer
to
the
Huffaker
Hills,
for a walkabout in
view of Mt. Rose, Slide Mountain, and the Virginia Range.
From
here,
tool
about
on
the
eastern
side
of
the basin, recapitulating the route of a number of walks on the Pacific-to-Sparks (NV) course,
then
jump
on
395
south,
to
spend
the
fantastic
night in Carson City....
80th day of summer, high up 5 to 96 (tying w/ May 18 as the hottest of the year -- 27 days 80+, 8 90-or-beyond), 87 in Reno, 82 to the south...
