Location |
Main Features: Very dry terrain characterizes the stretch of trail North of Raymond Peak to Upper and Lower Kinney Lakes. Though there are good year-round water sources, including the drainages that run down from Raymond Lake, as well as Pennslyvania Creek, the volcanic terrain and strange other-worldly shapes that have eroded out of Reynolds Peak give this dry stretch of the trail an arid feel. |

I am real tired of them constantly changing the location of information and me constantly searching for it. I have watched the NF webmasters for over three years constantly waste money by needlessly killing completed pages, and, apparently starting all over again. I am hopeful that at some point in time the NF webmasters will stop killing perfect pages and build on the content they have, rather than constantly re-inventing the wheel, or making work for themselves. Job Security? This money should have been spent in the field, on the trails, and maintaining facilities. In the meantime it is incredibly difficult to find the constantly moving and shifting information on their crappy websites. Hint to NF webmasters: The internet is supposed to make finding info easier-not harder. |
