TomG came up with another good hike for the third week since I've been back. TomG, Tomcat, Lisa and I met just south of Owens Lake. This was a nice get together just before the holidays. Great weather and a beautiful day in the mountains with good friends!

Nice pictures Cori.
It looked like a fun day.
The mountains are calling and I must go.
