Looks very surreal upside down!

Foss lakes area, North Cascades, 2010

Father/Son trip into my favorite territory. I've been into the more remote areas 6 times with my big brother. He and one of his buddies explored it back in the early 1970's after poring over USGS maps and whist imbibing on the exotic Rainer beer.
I had turned 50 and figured I'd better get up there with my son while I still can!



That's a "Sunbuster" wool shirt that I wore up to the same lake 20 years prior... it fits him better now.




Nice glacial polishing on some hillsides, mostly too damn steep for access except for one off trail ideal spot
