DSCF0425.JPG7 viewsMt. Regan above Sawtooth Lake from the saddle above the W side of lake. We were blessed with a WSW breeze with gusts to 29 mph, and cumulous clouds, which kept the high down to 70, and made for some nice photo opportunities.

DSCF0433.JPG7 viewsI try to clue them in on the best approach to Lake 8771, as well as the challenges descending the N Fork Barron Creek, without spoiling surprises.

DSCF0518.JPG7 viewsClimbing a ridge west of peak 9883 after descending almost to Island Lake. This ridge will take me to the pass, and my descent to Hummock Lake. Glad to be climbing up and away from the irresponsible pet owner’s noisy dog on the far side of the lake, spoiling everyone’s wilderness experience!
