(L to R) Morgain, Don, Lisa Randall & Janice (front) at the Granite Mountain Lookout, the lookout, Janice changes back into her fabulous purple tights, Lisa never met a talus slope she didn't want to climb, Janice & Randall, Janice & Morgain descent the mountain

 

(L to R)  The gang getting ready to head down after a very cold lunch at the lookout, Don just before he got hit with the first snowball of the season, Morgain on the descent from the lookout, view from the trail, this is the route that Lisa tried to take before she climbed back down and took the regular trail, frozen ponds

 

(L to R) clouds moving through Snoqualmie Pass, water droplets on leaves, dripping berries, alpine life, another awesome view from the trail, low bush huckleberries (like blueberries, only they taste better)
