Great Basin National Park - October 2020

[ski3pin]

We were gone a week. Nevada called. We headed east and returned to Great Basin National Park, one of our favorite destinations. We've wanted to do a fall colors trip to Great Basin so we took advantage with a spur of the moment trip. All three parts are now posted to our blog and can be found with these links -

"We were alone all day. There is hardly anything better than that."

Indeed!

I’m jealous! We are still wrapped up in moving! I had never heard “ghost groves” used before, that’s a great descriptor. Thanks for letting us tag along!

Fantastic fall color pics!! We were there a few days before you and between not feeling 100% and the altitude I could only hike 3-4 miles so your photos showed me all that I missed. Thanks!!

Fun day. Always great seeing wildlife. Even better when you have time to get good photos, not the shoot out the truck window with the mirror in the way kind. Enjoyed the ride along.

Indeed!

The solitude was a much appreciated part of our hiking adventures. How wonderful it is to delve into the sights, sounds, smells of nature without others about. Thanks Vic!

Thanks Ronin! With the smoke and all the other issues this year has brought, it turned out to be a great trip for us and we do revel in the opportunities to get out a move some!

Yup, we do love to see the critters. We hoped for elk above the high meadows but no luck. Thanks again, jd!
