Surprise Lake and Amphitheater Lake

Today Rosie and I hiked up to Surprise Lake and Amphitheater Lake. Solid afternoon, 10 miles and 3000 vert.


Bumper sticker of the day. Seems to be by hunters who are anti-ATVs but I think we can all agree on the sentiment.

 Bradley and Taggart Lakes. An easier hike than Sabbatus, might be a good one to do with Nick and Eileen.


Crazy cris cross tree.


Surprise!


Amphitheater!
 


There are some well-fed marmots up there.

Looks like termites were inside this tree, then a hungry bear ripped open the tree to eat the termites.


Yogi hungry.


Finished up in the later afternoon. Here, relaxing at Dornan's, classic place to get a beer and a bite after hiking/climbing/skiing/biking in the park. We were soon joined by Rosie's parents, and friends Russ and Karen.
