Higher up, the view opens up.
It's still spring at the higher elevations.
Descending toward Fish Lake.
Close to the lake, the trail passes through a patch of lupines, close relatives to Texas Bluebonnets.
The view from camp.
I took this pic on the hike out the next morning, about halfway up the ridge. A bald eagle flew in to inspect the lake, but I was shooting toward the morning sun and at a moving subject, so the pics didn't turn out too well.
A view of the Bitterroot Mountains to the west, in the late morning sun.
Did you bring your fly rod? I know someone who has a collection of antique flies purchased at a pawn shop in the 1960's for next to nothing. I know for a fact you could pick them up for say,--$4063.27. Of course the shipping would be free and they will catch fish if properly presented!*
ReplyDeleteI knew a Fish Lake once...no wait that was Fish Gomez...sorry my mistake!
ReplyDeleteI could've used Fish Gomez on that trip. He could've help carry my gear. Den.
