High Sierra Music Festival 2011
We arrived the day before the festival to camp out in cue in a cow pasture in Quincy, California, and wait for the gates to open in the morning. There was still snow on nearby mountains, possibly just from the night before. But the day was beautiful and warm.

One-man-band: Zach Deputy, and the hula hoopers who joined him on stage.
I loved seeing the kids at the festival, especially when they were enjoying the bands and wearing ear protection!
There was a daily parade through the festival grounds which I managed to catch one of the days.

Cellist and loop master: Zoe Keating
Escaping the hot sun by resting in the solar-powered mist room made the weekend survivable! We took an afternoon to swim in a nearby river.
