There were hints that it might be a grand time to view Rhododendrons, so Rhododendrons were viewed. Other flowers were about, too.

I made it out to the old growth redwoods and late in the day I could even feel those big trees getting ever bigger! And there was even a rhododendron remaining along the Rhododendron Trail this late in the season.

Back to US-50, I completed the circle through Nevada with one last little hike joining a pair of interpretive trails outside Fallon. The interpretive trail at Grimes Point showcases the 8000 year old petroglyphs of the area. The interpretive trail at Hidden Cave showcases the geology including the tufa with its human connections.
