Thomas Creek - May 21, 2013
From Reno, take the Mt. Rose Hwy west, at the base of the mountain, turn right on Timberline Drive. Go to the end, begin the dirt road and cross the wooden bridge. Take the dirt road to the left and then go left to the creekside parking for the trailhead. Thomas Creek is popular for its aspen trees and year-round creek. This particular day it was very, very windy everywhere, but we sought shelter in the trees by the creek and we were fine.
