September 24, 2022

D and I finally checked off visiting Great Basin National Park. Our thoughts were - kinda cool with bristlecone pines and small alpine lakes and a rock moraine. But how did this get “National” standing? 

Hotel nevada in the “heart” of Ely. Much better than the Diamond D in Delta we looked at that we would have had to share a bathroom. 
 
Hiked the alpine lakes loop and added on the trail to the glacier that was mostly covered in rocks and not very big. But the bristle cone forest was cool and hiking over all the rocks was also cool. The fall leaves were starting and the trailhead had pretty fall aspens. After our hike we ate lunch and it was another great lunch spot for 2022. 
 
Then we drove home with a stop at the Sev in  doubto Delta for a drink. Came home to terrible news that the Algers were in a bad car accident. My scripture reading included Alma 38:2 - look to the Lord your God.
