Heather...
Jill...
and I...
put on our boots...
and began the ascent.
There were exotic flowers...
and boulder fields...
and mossy rocks...
Pretty soon we were above snow level.
The last mile was solid switchbacks, and Heather was leading at a good pace, but it was worth it all when we came to Snow Lake.
We stopped at the lake to eat & drink...
Heather: "I'd give you a bite of my sandwich, but then you'd want the whole thing."
and Jill killed a bee that was attacking me!
Isn't it gorgeous?!
The end!
