Farewell Spring, Hello Summer

I went up to the high country to try and get some shots of the Milky Way last night. 
High clouds obscured it when I was up at Donner Summit. 
Luckily I saw a patch of very dark sky on my drive home and 
pulled over to catch a quick shot. 
I do love the dark skies above Nevada County.

Truckee and Donner Lake. A steady stream of traffic flows down the summit
