"After the first glass, you see things as you wish they were. After the second, you see things as they are not. Finally, you see things as they really are, which is the most horrible thing in the world."

BeirdneauI climbed up the Preston Valley Trail (Green Canyon) with my wife. For mid-May the lack of snow was really abnormal. It has been a really low snow year. We didn't see another person the entire hike. Nice views all along the ridge to the peak.

Hike at DuskI hiked up the Preston Valley Trail from Green Canyon. It was dusk when I started and I ended up doing a fair portion of the hike with a headlamp. It was dark when I reached the ridge line and after spending awhile enjoying the silence, I headed back down. The trail is well traveled, so finding my way wasn't difficult.
