 We cross the North Boquet and set up camp |
 The river has lots of beautiful ice and running water |
 We follow a cat (?) which crosses the river |
 But bypass the cat crossing |
 Nice print |

 View under the ice |
 Zach midstream |
 The water leading to the falls |
 More wild ice |
 A view of the river -- beaver dam gone -- Spotted Mountain in reflection |
 Careful recrossing of the river |
 Dinner time |
 Breaking camp at 6:15 |
 We make trailhead at 7:15 |
 Lots of climbing |
 There isn't too much snow at first |
 The Brothers give some great views |
 One of the Views |
 A woodpecker at work |
 Testing the snow depth -- now its several feet |
 It starts to snow and the hiking is beautiful |
 Last junction before the top |
 The trail gets very steep |
 A view of the slide up lower Wolf Jaw from near the summit |
 We make the summit which is very windy |
 We move into shelter from the wind for a quick lunch, hand warmers and drier clothes |
 We enjoy last views |
 Gothics in the clouds |
 Marcy with lots of snow |
 The descent is steep |
 We pass JBL with ominous clouds |
 Reaching the south side trail, the sun comes out for a moment under the dark clouds |
 A bridge arched by a tree |
 Johns Brook |
 Water slides with ice |
 A scramble up |
 A slide down |
 Avoids a very icy stretch of the south side trail |
 A wall of ice |
 reaches three stories |
 We carefully cross Johns Brook |
 and ascend onto the Hemlock ridge which leads easily back to the trailhead |
