FORESTS and GLACIERS
(Glacier Peak Wilderness - Cascade Range - NW USA - August 2004)
Before attempting the ascent of Glacier Peak, we went to admire it from a distance...
The climb from the
valley - our first - was a bit rough... very heavy packs... and we are
not used to the heat (over 80°F : a bit unusual here, anyway)...

But the camping area, at Buck Creek Pass, is a delight...

And the stroll to High Pass, on the next day, paid us of all our pains...
