Onto the old road from south meadow |
passing the old beaver meadow |
and many toads |
to marcy dam |
a good break |
up to lake arnold |
log with a star |
bluets |
on the ne colden slide |
tricky boardwalk |
trickier |
careful |
rest above feldspar |
lake tear of the cloud |
snow on the trail |
climbing skylight |
to treeline |
lapland rosebay bud |
nearby storm |
colden slide |
pose out of the wind |
great views for lunch |
alpine azalea |
diapensia |
adding layers at treeline on Marcy |
lapland rosebay in a crack |
nearing the summit |
after climbing plenty |
on top |
we enjoy an hour with the summit to ourselves |
watching |
clouds |
all around |
descending |
to the boardwalk |
a pose at indian falls |
a rest |
at this magical spot |
a sparrow |
back to marcy dam |
more hail with the next storm |
heading toward iron |
through the woods |
morels |
checking out the first view |
and the seecond view |
a little descent |
rock harlequin (Corydalis sempervirens) |
final scramble |
