I spent #58 with friend Betsy at Crystal Lake on Mt. Adams. Snow was already gone, replaced by mosquitoes.
Lots of lupine on the way up
Lots of buttercup on the way up
Adams from Riley Meadows
Some really bright indian paintbrush in the meadow
Finally a bit of snow
Final bit of steepness
Mt. Rainier
Mt. Saint Helens
Mt. Adams
Crystal Lake and Mt Adams
And at sunset
Different the next morning
Break at a lake on the way down
