Heading east: I always wanted to go there for a hike, especially check out the area because I have heard that back country skiing is supposed to be good there. We got a ride with Andrew's new Hascort (I hope I spelt it correct), it is just a beast. It goes 200 (well, it could go but you are only allowed to drive 90).

We got dropped of at the trail head. There were so many mosquito's, it was terrible. We were just running for the first 3 km.
After a while we could see some peaks but we were still quite low.
It was hard work to get up, about 1300m in elevation. Can you count the morsquito bites on my forehead...?
more peaks became visible
The Cascades
the view got better and better

almost at the top
View down to Russet Lake, 1300m lower. The US-Canada border is going across the lake.
at the camp: I am hungry!!!
nice warm fire
And that was the aim for the next day:
