Here's Cathy, I think this was along the Salmon Butte
trail.
|
|
|
Kim, me, Julie, Kevin, and Bob, at the top of
something, I think the Devil's Peak Lookout.
|
|
|
Jeff and Kim (different Kim) came out to visit, and I
dragged them up to Mt. St. Helens on a cloudy day... Here they are
listening attentively to a ranger talk about the eruption.
|
|
|
This was the best view of the mountain we got though!
|
|
|
Digitalis! Seen along the Hummocks Trail hike.
|
|
|
My little brother and his little girlfriend! Aren't
they cute??
|
|
|
They just keep getting cuter...
|
|
|
Here they are by Wahclela falls. (I'm sure I
spelled that wrong!)
|
|
|
Okay, next event of the summer: we're getting Heather's
hair ready for her wedding!
|
|
|
More time for Heather's hair.
|
|
|
|
|
getting everything just right...
|
|
|
The bride and groom.

|
|
|
|
|
|
Hiking up to McNeil Point with Bob. This was the first
of a few trips up that trail this year!
|
|
|
Wildflowers along the trail up to McNeil Point -- I
think at this point we were along the Timberline Trail.
|
|
|
I have no idea what these were, but they were all over
the place and very fragrant, smelled like something familiar...
|
|
|
If anyone can tell me what they are, great -- we just
called them Dr. Seuss flowers.
|
|
|
A few very minor snowfields...
|
|
|
Cathedral Ridge, up to the summit of Mt. Hood.
|
|
|
Me at the top of the hike.
|
|
|
Bob at the top of the hike!
|
|
|
These are perhaps even more Dr. Seuss-like!
|
|
|
Next trip. Heading up Mt. St. Helens with Bob and
Alice.
|
|
|
A chipmunk followed us for a little bit -- he was
fearless! Crawled into Alice's backpack even! (Wish I'd caught that on
film...)
|
|
|
Me and Alice resting along the way.
|
|
|
Woohoo! Bob looks like he might make it!
|
|
|
Yup, making it to the top.
|
|
|
Alice's summit picture.

|
Bob's summit picture
|
|
|
My summit picture!
|
|
|
I've probably got another of these somewhere (from the
climb 2 years ago maybe?)
|
|
|
Next trip. Went up to Moses Lake to see Adine, Kathryn,
and their 3-year old Gwen! Here's their house on the lake.
|

|
