Our final mountain pass

Friday we left Lake Tahoe on Rte 89 through Luther Pass & along the Carson River valley, on up to Carson Pass in the Carson Range of the Sierra Nevada Mts. All are named for Kit Carson a scout for Lt? Fremont.
Spring comes late here & the wild flowers are blooming everywhere. Took our lunch break on the Pacific Crest trail atop Carson Pass & finally got to play in the snow. Then cycled a little farther past Caples Lake to campground at Silver Lake where we enjoyed the lake & creek & more beautiful sunny weather.
