Due to the lack of snow in the local mountains, R and I took a drive out from Fawnskin to Green Valley Lake this afternoon: 3N14 to 3N16. Here are some photos:

R taught me how to take these kinds of pictures.


The north side of Butler Ridge as seen from 3N16 west of Big Pine Flat. Butler Peak is the highest point in the picture.


Butler Peak from further to the west on 3N16.


A confused flower thinks it's Spring. This was along 3N16 at about 5,900 ft. elevation.


This hawk flew up and landed just in front of us in Green Valley Lake.


Panorama of Green Valley Lake from its dam. Notice the lake is partially frozen.


A view of Lake Arrowhead from 3N16 northwest of Green Valley Lake.


On the way back, between Green Valley Lake and Big Pine Flat, this bobcat ran across the road just in front of us. This is the only picture I got as it was walking away into the forest.

Well, if you put down the iPad you probably get better.

Nice shots.

I saw a bobcat in that same area (about 2 mi north of Green Valley Road on 3N16) a few weeks before Thanksgiving.

Notice, remember do not leave dogs in cars even for a little while in the sun. CNN reports a police dog was killed this way today.

Sometimes it is hard to figure out who your true friends are. Other times they just show up and shine!

a bit late to the party.. you don't need the waiver to ride the sky chair if you are walking. Only bike riders need the waiver. The walk down is a different path this year and steeper.
