Did 1.25 miles

Judy and I drove up to the ski areas (Brighton) and walked around Silver Lake. I'm guessing the distance was about 1.25 miles. The distance wasn't great, but the elevation was high and breathing was difficult. In shady spots, there was snow on the ground, although the ground was dry in areas that get sun. We went up to see colored leaves, but the leaves were gone. We need to go into the mountains 2 or 3 weeks earlier to see the leaves before they fall to the ground.
