Title: Pasayten trip 2012 two more days Pictures added.
Post by: steen on July 11, 2012, 06:32:32 PM: Two more days before we leave for a pack trip (via mule train -- outfitter) with 5 sisters/10 women to the pasayten. Looking so forward to some time off and away. Hope I don't come home more tired than I left.
Can't wait to see Remmel Lake again!

Six of the ten went up to the top of Ampatheater Mnt. Here we are on the saddle above Cathedral Pass

Got back yesterday and experienced numerous thunderstorms. The first an hour after we arrived--it poured for an hour, a distant one on Sunday with little rain, a torrential downpour for 4-5 hours on Tues., a good rain without lightening on Thurs. night--quit just before we had to pack up to leave, and another for 2-3 hours of rain on the way down. We had some awesome weather also, a great trip and prepared for whatever hit us. I'll work on some photos soon. A few of the storms, digging ditches around one of the tents, rain on the pinetrees, riding out in it, and the mule we took to carry our freezer and fridge stuff in.

The elusive goat we finally saw after 3 trips.

I'm digging ditches around one of the tents to divert the rainwater. Reminded me of my childhood, loved playing in the rain.
