Being that Walter is without air conditioning we were a little nervous to drive into Nevada. It was quite warm there but Joshua took us up to a hike in the Ruby Mountains where it felt wonderful outside.
We started the hike on a trail following a creek surrounded by pretty greenery. Soon after though the trail gave way to giant snow patches and eventually became just a big snowfield. We strapped on our crampons and continued on the trail, snow in Nevada who knew! Then the trail kinda disappeared and we had to make our own way. We decided the best way was straight up, I only agreed to this plan because he was carrying Roslyn. Straight up was a shorter route and we got to look back where we'd come from with uninterrupted views.
At the top we hung out near a frozen Dollar Lake. Roslyn woke up, we showed her snow and played around a bit. Then I strapped her to me and we took a less steep route back down.
You guys find the coolest hidden gems. Also, you're both going to be so buff from carrying her.
