the rocks overlooking Round Valley Meadow. This spot is a short hike from the Tram Station (About 2 miles). |

Valley are starting to bloom. Long Valley is located right below the Tram station. |
7/1/98 Trail update - The trail between
the tram and Round Valley is clear. This is a great time
to come up, as the creeks are full and the waterfalls are
the best they have been in a long long time. As readers
know, this is a beautiful area, but with all the water,
it is truly exceptional. Round valley is green and spring
is now here. Temp at tram station a nice 70 degrees. In
addition to the butterflies, the Ladybugs have come out.
For a few weeks they appear, and are everywhere. Ladybugs
don't bother people. Its worth the trip just to see
them.They are too small and fast for my camera, but
believe me, they are |
