First time to Great Basin. Looking for a break from the St. George heat. Weather was not too cooperative but still had a great hike to Wheeler Peak. Definitely had the place to ourselves. We'll have to come back again to see what it looks like without the clouds.

Did you go see the bristlecone pines?

Not this time because of the weather. Nice? Looks like there's a lot of great trails there we'll have to go back for.

Pete, great stuff! A while ago I drove up on a friday after work, camped, got up early and hiked to the top, then back down and drove home. Weather was perfect! I also would like to return and do some more hiking there one day!

Bo- Anytime you want to go there to hike and can't find anyone else to go, you can always contact me. It would have been nice to have the weather that you did in your pic, but at least Chris and I made it to the top and got to see a little bit of the stuff below.
