Joined Gary and Dave from the Sacramento Sierra Club Photography Section for a snowshoe trip out of Carson Pass.  This was my first snowshoeing trip and my first “photography” trip, where the goal was pictures and not just hiking.  Unfortunately, the weather was not very cooperative.  We trekked up the first hill to a great spot for photographing the mountain ranges and right after the guys set up their tripods and equipment (lots of stuff that I don’t have), out comes a big black cloud to block the sun.   Don’t worry, it’ll pass… well it didn’t and out came the snow!  Anyway, not the best photography day, but had a fun day overall.

Distance: approximately 2 miles.  Time: 3 hours.  Elevation Change: approximately 400′.
