    Sacramento Hanger Trip

    First of all, I invite all the participants in our trip to add their own post and photos here. We had a great time and it was wonderful to meet some new friends.

    Since I can't link to Google Drive photos I'll edit this post to remove all the annoying broken image links.

    I couldn't get time to work on it last night. I'll try to get some photos up tonight, if not, it will be Saturday before I can post anything.

    Don't know why your photos didn't show, but here they are: https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B4...nd1WHRoN2Q0TlU

    I will add that I really enjoyed this backpacking trip, the people I met, and the cool area. I've often avoided Tahoe National Forest, as I'm more familiar with El Dorado National Forest and Stanislaus National Forest. I was surprised to find a good introductory hike, fairly level, perfect weather and terrain. Here's the hike in: https://www.gaiagps.com/datasummary/...33d092ec4c078/ and the hike out: https://www.gaiagps.com/datasummary/...82709117d3631/

    We left in a thunderstorm, with rain falling, but that alleviated the mosquitoes that harassed us every time we stopped.

    That's odd, because they're showing on my computer.

    Edit: OK, now that I clear my cache I can't seem them either. I'm guessing that we can't do an image link to a google drive URL.
    I'll see if I can work on it tonight when I get home.
