This summer ruled. Here are some highlights.
Mt. Hood and the Muddy Fork from the Copper Spur Trail
These little party dudes were everywhere on Mt. Hood. One of my favorites of all the flora we saw.
Coe Glacier. You could hear these things cracking and popping all day and night. Crazy.
A section of the Dollar Fire burn area near Cairn Basin
Creek crossin'
Mt. Rainier from the edge of camp in Cairn Basin
Mt. St. Helens from the same spot.
The sunsets seemed to last forever up there. Chillin' in the pink at our first camp spot in Cairn Basin
One branch of the Muddy Fork near McNeil Point
For the second and third nights we claimed the prime camping spot in Cairn Basin. Enjoying the afternoon sun.
Campfire, whiskey, and the devil's lettuce
Every night the moon would rise up over the mountain and light everything up like day.
Lewis River, lower falls
Partyin' on the Fourth, Three Pools
Loren, executing perfect form into the Santiam.
All black triple jump. Lewis River.
Gettin' wet ya'll. Lewis River
Getting lost in Lost Lake.
