Here's the group that took our recent hike in the Cleveland National Forest.

Almost to the top, looking down
Here's a picture from Heninger Flats. Yes, the trail is even hotter than it looks.

Gilbert, shortly before sunset
This picture is from just above Gilbert Lake, high in the Eastern Sierras. A little bit of work to get there, and an occasional mosquito, but always worth it. On this 1991 trip, we camped at Matlock Lake. Many of us took a day hike on Saturday to Kearsarge Pass, and looked down on the lakes.

Independence Peak (I think)
As the sun sets in the mountains, the last glimmer of sunlight on Independence Peak fades as do any memories of the city. This photo was also taken on the 1991 trip into Matlock Lake.

Mick, Wendy, Ginny
Truly a two dog day! Back locally again, Mick and his two dogs rest on the peak monument of Mt. Baden-Powell. This short drive can lead to quite a workout, with a wonderful view from the top. You don't even have to sit on an ant hill to get a rest.
