The amazing thing about the day is that it was 4 below zero when we woke up. Oh boy did the sun come through as the morning progressed. Temperatures were still in the teens when we hit the trails; but that strong & bright sun sure made it feel warm!
Blue skies & bright sun as we traverse the middle meadow in the Indiana Creek gulch. |
Most of this trail is actually in the forest, not open meadows. A nice shot of the Siberians towing me up the narrow trail through the trees. |
Sprinting across the lower meadow on our way back to the trailhead - wheeee! |
As has become standard for tours around Indiana Creek this year: at least one pause to search for moose in the adjacent meadows.
"Here moosie moose! Where are you? We've seen you from this exact location before!" state the moose surveying pair. |
A fun backcountry tour covering 8 miles with 1000 feet of elevation climbed and a top speed of 20 MPH.
