Camped overnight in one of the Bear Valley's most primo campspots	Always been a sucker for flower pictures... there's good, and then there's better!

As is obvious from this picture, the Bear Valley & environs is largely burned. Wouldn't take much to erase the trees altogether.	Elk Creek. A small creek, pretty much like many others in Idaho, but this one still has salmon runs. Incomprehensible that a salmon would come this far just to keep the species going.
