So climbing mountains may not be everyone's cup of tea, but it's mine. I wish I had one picture that could show a 360 degree view of what I see when I am up there. Every peak is different looking down into different drainage's, lakes, and across to different peaks. This particular view is of the Hurwal Divide as well as Chief Joseph. The rock formations, vast colors, and spectacular views never cease to amaze me. Earlier today I was on top of Sacajawea, the highest peak in the eagle cap wilderness sitting at just over 9800ft high. It's about 13.5 miles give or take, round trip with 4700 ft of climbing for a mere 1/2 hour rest soaking it all in and eating a tasty PB&J. For me, it doesn't get any better than this!

The closest thing I have experienced is when I got to the top of the tram ride and I thought the view was the most beautiful I'd ever seen. I was enthralled. (I still am sad that I didn't to see it this last summer.) I'm pretty sure I won't be climbing any mountains either. I love your shoes in this pic. Fun!
