In mid September, Sue, my friend from my Alaska trip, flew out from Georgia to join Gina, John George, Sherell, Chris and myself on a weeklong backpacking trip in Oregon's Eagle Cap Wilderness. JG had been to the area when he was a boy scout, but none of the rest of us had heard of it.
What an amazing place. The elevation was mostly about 6000 feet, and it was filled with beautiful lakes and valleys. Much of the landscape was granite. It reminded me of the Sierra Nevada. Our favorite lakes were Moccasin Lake, because of the amazing clarity of the water and the great drop offs, and Glacier Lake, because of it's incredible beauty.
