Day One--The Hike Up–

• Lunch stop on the hike up
• Tangles of spruces were common sites
• Lake#3 opposite shore about 7:00pm
• Sunset on North Rawah peak

Day Two--Morning Hike–

• Our campsite--sunrise came at 6:20
• Approaching Grassy Pass
• Looking back at Lake#3 & the Snowy Range

• We came across a ptarmigan while bushwacking to Lake#4
• Lake#4 sits beneath the South Rawah peak
• From the shore--it was more towering than it looks here
• When the clouds built up, it was time to leave

• Going cross-country leaving Lake#4
• One last panorama from Grassy Pass
• The Snowy Range from Grassy Pass

Day Two--Afternoon Hike–

• Just above our campsite were three lakes. The nearest was Upper Sandbar Lake.
• We continued on and reached Big Rainbow Lake.
• We turned around, went past Upper Sandbar and shortly came to Lower Sandbar Lake.

Lingering Images–

• Sunrises are mighty close by up there.
• At 11,000, wild flowers are abundant.
• And the columbine thrive up there!
• They actually look like the Scenic Byway signs.
• We left at 7:50 a.m. leaving this view behind.

Some Stereoviews–

• Our campsite--an unintended stereo pair
• They moved with the breeze, but here is my attempt
• A stereotypical view from our trip
