I wanted to hike close to town but also wanted to see some snow from the recent storm. I noticed that coming back from Pine the day before there was still quite a bit of snow on Thompson Peak. So Sunday morning headed for the Dixie Mine trailhead for some desert snow. Of course there was plenty of snow still around and quite a bit on the upper half of Thompson. The steep part near the top was a bit slick but managed to stay upright. I've never seen any snow on Thompson so was very cool to see that much for a hike I usually think of more as workout hike.
