    Hike to Shriner Lake
    Good hike. Pretty easy to find. Not overly crowded which is hard to find during the pandemic.

    Great wildflowers! Hardly anyone here except got every crowed when you get to the emigrant lake trail. Turned around because it was too busy.

    Woods Lake Campground Loop via Pack Trail
    Great hike, going to Winamucca Lake first is an easier accent than going to Round Top first. Next time we will add 4th of July Lake, adding 3 miles and another 1200 feet of elevation gain to theb hike.

    Have always wanted to do this hike. Thought by now the snow would have been melted - No! Approached base from Winnamucca Lake side. Loose lava on way to top. Beautiful views!
