We arrived back to North America after almost 9 months of travel on Aug. 20th. We were unemployed and moderately broke. The weather was sunny and beautiful and it was the height of hiking season. Our first excursion was out to the Alpine Lakes Wilderness in Central Washington.
The next morning we awoke fairly early and begun our trek up Jackson Ridge.
'Chicken of the Woods' fungus.
Joan Lake.
The next day we hiked out and began driving further east towards 'The Enchantments'.
The weather was perfect and the views were fantastic.
Asgard Pass.
Colchuk Lake.
Gotta love America.
