Yosemite is an amazing piece of real estate but I look at that photo and damn, I'm happy I don't live in Cali. There are still a lot of places here where one can get lost for a few days and not see another person. No permits or WAG bags required. Makes me wonder what John Muir's thoughts would be seeing that.

Reminds me of this:

Certainly looks like you picked an exceptional day for that hike. Hard to beat the view at the top, hordes or not.

Don't know if it is amazing, but sometimes a local place is just enough to get a needed outdoor fix. Mrs Mags and I took a two hour stroll in the foothills last weekend. The fall color was brilliant.

Here are two photos from a backpacking trip I took to Floe Lake in Kootenay National Park, BC back in August.

The trail to the lake is about 6.5 miles long. A large forest fire in 2003 burned nearly everything, and this photo doesn't show it, but the amount of regrowth is really dramatic.

The forest fire stopped a few hundred yards before Floe Lake so all the beautiful old growth forest remains there.
