The Hike Itself


One of many waterfalls we saw during this week


One of many shady and beautiful glens we passed by

Chowing down

More shade... and more chow


Flowers & Trees lack the moxie to know that a crack in the rock is no place to set up housekeeping

One of the many, many streams in this area

Leaving Low Pass Lake on the way over Low Pass into the Spangle/Ingeborg Lakes basin

One of the prettier of the many pothole lakes present in this area

Hey! What's all the racket up there?

Talk about water out of the rock!

I am always fascinated by the number and magnitude of the small car-sized rocks that occuring in these areas

Another shady glen on the way back from Everly Lake

My hiking partner and I love to haul out the topo and take the cross-country route to places. In this case, since the trail went waaaaay down just so it could go waaaay back up again, following the 8200 ft contour line seemed like a good plan. It was.

One of many camps we had to set up that week

Not only was I fascinated by these giant rocks, I thought that this was one of the most idyllic camp spots I have seen

A no-name lake on the way to Spangle from Ingeborg

I thought that this cone to the east of Little Spangle was every bit as symmetrical as the famed Fuji

Hey, you! Get offa my cloud!

My partner and I were in awe of some of the incredible granite formations in the Sawtooths

On the first night out, this served as a camp spot. Not only were the goats showing signs of packing it in, but so was the daylight!
