| Therriault Pass Hike with
Dan & Eric June 14, 2015 |
|
| The day after his daughter's wedding, Dan
needed to get outdoors and relax a bit. We went along on a hike
toward Therriault Pass, which was made a bit longer by the fact that the
gate was still closed which prevented us from driving to the
trailhead. Often at this time of year there is too much snow to
allow cars up there, but it was a HOT June this year, there was no hint of
snow anywhere. Poor Dan didn't get much exercise because of us flat-landers,
but it was still a nice time hanging out together. |

| Therriault Pass | I forgot what plant this was now, but aren't they cute mini pinecones? |
