Sacramento Pass Recreation Area, Nevada

There was one trail I hadn't gotten to try. This is the one aimed at horses rather than mountain bikes. It started off trail-like enough, but is mostly signed along decaying roads. It does wander some pretty hills with a few nice views and I discovered the American Discovery Trail on the way.

My second day backpacking the South Egan Range Wilderness, I climbed up the high point in the morning. That's Adams benchmark. Then I got back to Ninemile Canyon for water, then traveled down to Sheep Pass Canyon and found camp on a small branch.

The third and last day in South Egan Range Wilderness, I headed up a peak identified as the high point on a trailhead sign. It is in error, but it is an interesting peak all the same. Though easy on one side, it is a high cliff on the other. I stopped to check on a spring first, then hiked a long way out with dark falling before I finished.

I went backpacking in the South Egan Range Wilderness for three days, heading up to the top of a peak once for each. The first day was wandering up Ninemile Canyon and around the hills until the top of Ninemile Mountain, then off to camp near high plateaus.

Following the eclipse, I took to wandering the looping trails at the Sacramento Pass Recreation Area.

Really just the briefest of looks into the High Schells Wilderness from Cleve Creek.

Finally found a library that works, so got my eclipse photos up. Perhaps they are such that only a mother could love.
