driving near Truckee to go out on a hike to Sagehen Creek Trail. It is about a five-mile (out and back) easy hike. A lot of people take their dogs out there, for it looked to me like there were more dogs than people today.
According to the link, there are spectacular wildflowers there, and if I had hiked perhaps a month earlier, I would have come across thousands and thousands of mule ear plants in bloom. As it was, there were tiny asters everywhere, as well as some tiny yellow flowers. I took a few pictures of the area before returning a couple of hours ago.
