SmugMug > keywords > alpine lakes wilderness > 2009 06-28 The hike out seemed to be much more grueling that in, despite the lack of any real sense of urgency this time.  I managed a few shots of the trail, and my hiking buddies, but little else of great interest here.
SmugMug > keywords > alpine lakes wilderness > 2009 06-28 On the hike out.  This was almost exactly 7 miles, and 14,000 steps according to my pedometer.  This was by far my favorite of the day.  I can't say why, but something tells me this photo will take me to that point in the trail for a long time to come.  

That's John (on Picasa)  behind Ecogeek who led the way home.  

Despite the mosquitos, blisters, and sore legs, this will be a weekend not soon forgotten.  Many more photos forthcoming once I have a chance to go through them all.
SmugMug > keywords > alpine lakes wilderness > 2009 06-27 Saturday we decided to go for a day hike to check out the lake and figure out how far we'd made it the night before.  This is Lake Waptus, and the site we'd hoped to reach on Friday.  It was great for a day hike, but we all agreed that it would've been a bit too much to try and get there the night before.  Again, John (on Picasa) and  Ecogeek will have many many shots like this one, with their own creative flair of course!
