Sierras Day 14: Flat tire followed by an easy hike

Changing the truck tire was a bitch. The hike was nice, and it brought you within a 100 meters of a nice snow patch to practice on. I also found an intrusion of white quartz, much like at crystal crag. I took a sample, but it was diminutive compared to the one I carried out a decade ago for my Fossil Cabin.

Then the rains came, and we retreated to Lee Vining, and a gigantic dinner at Nicely's, which I finished with pecan pie a la mode. NOT AS GOOD AS SELDEN'S but pretty darn good.
