Weekend Hike Pictures
« on: July 24, 2011, 06:19:15 PM »
Here are a few hike pics from the weekend. I also hiked into Crater Lake in the Sawtooths but forgot my camera :bash:.

All the interesting critters were too far away to get good pics.

Great shots, I have spent a lot of time in that country. Saw what me and a buddy are sure was a griz were that first pic was taken. Tough trail but very rewarding when you hit the ridge!

Great pictures, that brought back a bunch of memories.  I packed hunters in all that country for a few years.  Thanks for sharing.

Very nice. Looks like great country to be in. Did you just day hike in that area or backpack it in?

I just made a dayhike out of it. I had my daypack with 5 pints of water, a Mtn Dew, and my lunch. I ate lunch and drank the Mtn Dew at the lake and polished off the last bit of water just as I arrived back at the trailhead. As mentioned above, it's a pretty tough trail.

Yep thats a nice area. Know a couple people that were headed over to Upper and lower Eagle on the other side of the hill from there. I like to make a few trips over there since it opens earlier than the wet side.
