Juniper Dusk
Sierra Juniper (The poor man's Bristlecone.) above Meiss Lake Trailhead, Eldorado County, California. We were camped in the excellent free camping near Woods Lake when we noticed a decent looking sunset coming on. We jumped in the car, made the short drive to the trailhead, and charged up the hill until our full stomachs and the 9,000' elevation made it clear that might not be such a good idea. Anyway, the sunset ended up being just ok, but we did get real close to a still in velvet buck and stayed til dark shooting some of the gnarled Junipers.
