Here are some pictures from our hike on September 1st. The 2 friends I took are from Florida and have never been hiking before so I was very excited to show them the glaciers! They did a great job for it being their first hike!                                   
More pictures in an album here:

A lovely spot! Just a few more weeks and we should be able to get some skiing up that way on new snow!(crosses fingers)
This has got to be my favourite hike on a reach scorching day. The hotter it gets, the higher the katabatic winds off the glacier, which makes for a lovely natural air conditioner. And the first half or so in the forest is always cool and misty in the early mornings. |

| Creek crossing were not to bad at the end...can always find a way to cross. Although it really helps to have other people with you to help each other to cross. |
