Back to the road and climbing back up from the saddle. The snow was solid enough to hold my weight in most places, but there was enough postholing to warrent avoiding the snow filled roadbed where possible.

"Dude, where are your pants?". Passed this summitbound group on my way up, and they commented on my relative lack of clothing.

Was a bit worried about the snow on the forest road, but the Outback handled it without issue.

Stopped off at the Patriarch Grove on the way back to take a look at the ancient bristlecone pines. These trees are 1000-4000 years old.

Drove up to the Bald Mountain lookout on my trip back to Reno. Bit hazy today, but a great view of the snow capped Sierras.
