Hiking Post #1

For one of my first hikes of the season, two of my favorite Seattle-ites and I headed out to the Mt. Baker Snoqualmie National Forest. The hike was, in the strangely clinical way of the forest service, named Lake 22, and the lake was pretty phenomenal. However, there was a good deal more snow than any of us anticipated. It was just early June...

One of the many waterfalls we encountered along the way.
These two wonderful people pose in the snow near the lake.
I lean jauntily against the railing, posing with the snowy lake. You can see only a part of how the surrounding mountains reflected in the lake. Pretty phenomenal.
