Fictional Peaks

Didn't think it would happen so soon, but I already miss these mountains. This pictue was not doctored to look like a painting. Honest to God this is what it looks like in real life!

Braided Wash

Braided river...you wouldn't think it but these rivers are a serious challenge to cross in some areas.

The Grey Ascent

The mountains were inescapable. Not that I wanted to try and run from them.

Wax Off

Even the buses get to play dirty. Do you think the lady in the front is heading to the backcountry? Yeah me, neither.

289

My dusty green steed that will usher me Into the Wild (yes I plan saying that 10000 more times)

Old 289

Well not really old. In fact its the same bus.

Back It Up

The vehicle makes frequent stopes...for bears

Closer Than They Appear

What railroad crossings?!

Bow and Pray

Peak of Cathedral Mountain...I'd like to try this one next time.

Igloo Teaser

Ok so here is Igloo peak. This is what I mean by perspective. The "peak" on the far right is the point that it took me 2ish hours to reach. In the distant back/left is the peak of Igloo Mountain. It would take the rest of the day and ALL day tomorrow to get to the summit. Super deceiving, right?! Walking along that ridge in the back is one experience I will cherish for the rest of my life....stayed tuned.

Calm After the Storm

The fog began to lift and the sun peaked out just for a bit. But I was already soaked and the exhaustion levels had reached their tipping point.
