Tolmie Peak Trail

Post by Shem » July 22nd, 2007, 2:03 pm

This was the hardest trail I've been on in a while. It could have been that I worked all morning, it could have been the Harry Potter induced lack of sleep, it could have even been the steepness of the trail. I think it was worth it however.....

The flowers up there (about 5300ft, 6000 for the lookout) are amazing

Whew, my legs are sore again just looking at all that!
Enjoy.

No, that was on Desolation peak further north. Same style however…

trail walking in bliss
with level headed camera
hallowed earth air water
fire in the breath
