And plus ten this time of year is! and feels! Hot!
Two years ago on the same day, I hiked up Stony Creek, only a little snow around the krumholz, the east slope polished by sun and wind, and the trail lower deteriorating pretty fast as you see.
And for today I ran up the hill/mountain, in the back here
to see
if a crocus was blooming.
almost
if the kinnikinnick was blooming
not quite
What I saw
an exploded puffball
and
a peek into a little creek
and
no sight of the volcano spewing ash in Alaska
but still far enough views, some 100 km away, in the direction of Haines jct.
from left to right: Martha black, Archibald, 2 peaks belonging to Decoeli, Decoeli, and Paint mountain below Decoeli.
And what? could that be the Alsek river
FLOWING
you see it?
Ehhh It is even warmer in Haines jct, so could it be ....
nono say Don, that is white snow...and looking at maps it might be Thunderegg creek
