Very prettyAnd so is the summit. Hey, guys, this is a great little mountain (over 9000 feet to boot) and your pics are superb (as always) Glad to hear you can do the car thing now but it is easier for a guy my height than for a guy 6'4". Good job on this one.

Re: Very prettyDean, your compliments are starting to make Tom look bad. :-) Thank you so much. This trip was a great one for us. We had such a good time. The scenery was absolutely amazing. Already, I can't wait to do it again.

Re: Very prettyI think you guys are awesome together and your passion for the mountains is so great to see. BTW, there is a lot more snow on this mountain than when I was on it on July 3rd. Great peak.

Re: Very prettyThanks Dean, we definitely enjoy ourselves. We are both really looking forward to joining up with you again. Yeah just a bit more snow, we could have actually used that ice ax on your pack! You were right about Strawberry, amazing place. The north route up past Strawberry Lake and falls was beautiful! Did you enjoy the weather this weekend too?

Re: Very prettyI'd love to see the mountain w/out the snow. But it was so incredibly beautiful with it, I don't know if it would take away from the serenity I felt on it this trip.
Have you been down the Onion Creek trail, Dean? Do you have any pictures of the fire devastation? Do you have any pics of forest fires and their aftermath? I'm doing a huge project for one of my classes on forest fires, forest management, and Bush's "common sense" Healthy Forest Initiative, etc. I need pics! Would Bob mind if I used his pic on summitpost with the fireweed on Strawberry mountain?
Thanks for your help in advance.

Re: Very prettyI was in the Enchantment area above Leavenworth and while we had nice weather on friday, we had to bail out due to high winds and snow early saturday morning. It was at least good conditioning.....

Re: Very prettyThe trail I came in on was from the south side of the mountain, from the Roads End TH. I do have some pics of the burned area on that side of the mountain and I'll try and dig them up. I dont' think Bob would mind but he injured his calf muscle pretty bad last night and will be laid up for awhile. A real bummer.
