Successful work party, a lot got accomplished. All had fun.
Once in a while you just luck out with a beautiful mid-October day in the Wild Sky Wilderness.
This was a great hike starting out with static air at 32 degrees at the start and ending 3000 feet higher in blue skies and great sunlight. Sadly, no Mountaineers were present except the leader.
Approach and route are still in good condition.
Great fall trip to the top of South Sister with camping at Moraine Lake.
A great day of racing on the Sound. A sold performance by all the crew.
12 mile road walk (round trip), plus brushy traverse, and wet mossy slabs? Count me in!
It was a gorgeous October day and we had a delightful trip to Lake Ann, a gem of a lake with golden larches lining the shoreline.
Gorgeous fall colors and clear skies on this beautiful 15 mile/5000’ trip.
A challenging but rewarding late season adventure through Headlight Basin to Ingalls South Peak.
The hike to Barclay Lake was a naturalist hike looking for lichen and mushrooms.
This was a fun loop trip with nice views and interesting geology.
Fun outing to The Tooth in early fall conditions. Cold fingers and snow flurries a part of the experience.
