Thunder Mountain

Hiking in Kirkwood!

Kirkwood is a really interesting ski resort, away from the crowds of Heavenly, with a crazy amount of snow (averaging around 15 metres per winter). In the summer, it's fairly quiet with mostly locals hiking or mountain biking.

When I ran here a week prior, the day was cut short by thunder and lightning in the distance. On this day, there was not a cloud in the sky.

Up on the horseshoe shaped ridge that surrounds most of Kirkwood.

In the distance, the rocky ridge that leads to the summit of Thunder Mountain.
