Reno and surrounding areas: Official spotted, BS, and meets thread

Wasn't someone here selling a MTB bike a few months back?

 

Free Vizio 40 inch Lcd tv. With glass stand. Located in south Reno. Also ISO dinning.room/kitchen table.

 

I bet this location looks a bit different today than it did Saturday.

 

The trails are going to be messed up

 

Looks like Roadrunner parking lot.

 

Haven't been up that way in 20 years. Closest I got recently was Vya, in 2017.

Years ago it was nice. I want to go back and fish the ponds up there and generally go screw around some more.

 

I plan on making that trip, all backrounds and dirt the entire way there. I could go 80 to winnemucca and go north but thats not a fun route. thats a route for hybrid. I want to explore that area and go opal mining. Our anniversary is coming up soon and my wife loves outdoors stuff. I want to take her somewhere cool, maybe panning for gold, opal mining. and some nice tbones over a fire with wine, hot springs soak .

 

Last time I was there, we drove up 447, then out from Gerlach to Vya, and headed east-ish on...8A, I think. I'd have to pull up a map again.

That's a pretty nice drive, other than the speed traps on Indian land. When I took the kid a few years ago, it was May (we ended up at the obsidian beds in CA, though). I recall someplace up there had the best grilled cheese sammich I've ever had. I think it was at Denio Junction (we essentially made a big loop in 2001).

 

Lava beds eh? Was it in tulelake? Lava beds national monument? I worked on the modoc for the FS when I was in fire as a profession. Virgin valley got springs ! That's the place! Idk if it ta doable during the winter. Prob need two rigs. I really want to do this. And DV in winter. Picking up my new tent on Friday. Also, the LCD tv is spoken for, still have the glass stand if anyone wants it. Free 99

 

I took the kiddo up to Davis Creek. We got some nice needles, lots of brown-black stuff, and a few chips of rainbow stuff. We dug for hours but couldn't find any big pieces. We wanted to go looking for the pink stuff, up high, but it was May, and the road was snowed in. She wasn't up for the hike.

 

Did a trip a few years ago up there. Took 80 > 95 > 140 to get up there then came back down south through the Summit Lake Res and Soldier Meadows to Black Rock.

Was really fun and barely saw anyone. Super remote. Took a couple side trails to get from one major road to another that ended up being really rough. Would not want to break down out there.

The pools on the refuge are nice and they have showers using water from the spring. Campground is nothing special. Just a big flat area with some tables and trees.

Also highly recommend Thousand Creek Gorge. It’s “the Grand Canyon of Nevada.”

 

yes, seen that as well. I would love to hike through it, I saw on the map there is a overlook you can drive too.

 

Bored. Finally free of VA crap for the day. Gonna go play a round jumbo grade , let the doggos run around in the snow if there is any left, anyone wanna tag along?

 

Got stuck. Shoveled my way out and used traction boards, fuck I just was flipping a bitch and sunk right in. It is very muddy,soft out there. Stay frosty

 

Your pups are not pleased with you.

 

they were just mad. damn goldens want to eat everything, she is mad because she ate cow poop and tracked it inside the backseat and she got reamed for it. The lab just wanders the desert like a nutless wonder, excited chasing rabbits and birds. both good doggos, now they are getting the VIP treatment at the doggie salon.

 

just look at this face!

 

I'll see your chocolate, and raise you a red. I guess AKC considers them a yellow, though. 4 months on the 30th. The Talib could take lessons from this little shit.

 

my dog needs a play date, lets make this happen. beautiful doggo. We are uncertain if we will breed zoey, I know for sure I am looking for a stud for my amber golden retriever, she just turned 4 in sept.

 

Labs huh? Earl turned 3 last week, still a dumpster.
