Before ...
... Talk about a view!...
...mmmm cocoa...
... Glacier Lake...
...After (still smiling)If you want to be overwhelmed with beauty, camp at Glacier lake! one of God's masterpieces is the Sierra Mountains. So vast and vibrant with deep blue lakes and pure white granite! This labor day we backpacked in the Tahoe National Forest. There is said to be over 120 lakes in the Grouse Ridge area...we saw about six and camped on two.
The first night we found a secluded spot on Glacier lake about 40 feet from the water! second day we had small Island Lake all to ourselves. I (Jaime) discovered the difference between relaxation of the mind and relaxation of the body...the only thing we could relax ,while hauling 80+ pounds between the two of us, was our minds. It was difficult, but worth being surrounded by serenity.
Maddie did great; in fact, she was the only one not cold on the second night. I think she may have finally gotten tired of bananas though by the end of the three days!
