Boundary Peak Hike and Sketch

A grove of trees changing beautiful colors on the road up to Boundary Peak.

Looked like a glimpse of New England in the Nevada desert. 

One of my favorite desert plants, but I don't know what it's called. 

Seems to glow in the sunlight. 

We saw a couple people picking pine nuts on the way up.

I enjoyed a few myself and covered my fingertips in sap.

Loved it.  

We hiked to this register.  We didn't attempt the 3000ft. 

elevation hike up the summit.  

We met a man from Connecticut 

who was getting ready to hike up. 

A few buildings still standing near the grove of colorful trees.

I sat under a pinion pine and sketched.  All was quiet.
