Jim at Red Star Ridge17 viewsJim drove out to Red Star Ridge. He had gallons of cold water, homemade chocolate chip cookies (my favorite) and other goodies.

This was quite a contrast from last year – when Ken and I got here it was under snow,
We couldn't find where Dan had stashed the water, he said something about a log, and well, that just didn’t help. So, we stuffed our bottles with snow and ran to the first stream about 8 miles up the trail.

Escarpment11 viewsDan going up the escarpment.

Squaw Valley parking lot 6200'11 viewsWe met at Raley's (at the Forest Hill off ramp) and car-pooled up to Squaw Valley. Here we are preparing for the long day - Kari is ready, Ken is stretching, Whit is eating, David is applying sunscreen, Rob is waking up, and I am filling up my water bottles.
