A Nooner at Noon
I picked the perfect time along our hike near Burney Creek Falls to stop and open up a cold one. It was 11:59 when I took this picture. Nothing better than opening up a Nooner at noon.

Golden Lake as seen from Mono Pass
An alternate trail into Pioneer Basin and the Mono Creek drainage can be found by following the faint use trail that you can see in this picture. Just head North from the trail once you reach Mono Pas to the obvious cirque holding the lake.

Hiking in shorts, in the snow, in July, felt like a dream

I've hiked this pass multiple times and this time was by far the most beautiful.
