Lake Winnemucca - August 18, 2018
This is a totally unforgettable hike through carpets of wind flowers, 4.5 miles. Starting at Woods Lake the trail climbs gently through a mixed evergreen forest dotted with boulders. Then the trail opens up onto a wildflower meadow gradually steepening as it approaches Winnemucca Lake. You can hear and often see a rollicking stream following alongside the trail. There is a gain of 1000' to an elevation of a breathtaking 9000'. Some energetic hikers may want to continue on to Round Top Lake, another mile incline. We will have a picnic lunch back at Woods Lake after the in-and-out hike.
