I grabbed the last parking spot at the Garden -- an hour before sunrise |
dim light crossing Johns Brook |
swimming hole before rift brook |
swimming hole before the slide |
reaching Bennies Brook |
the climb begins |
water and rock |
lots more to go |
looking back |
great views |
lots of ice near the top |
and a dusting of snow |
views from lower Wolf Jaw |
a distant view of Algonquin |
the icicles begin |
Upper Wolfjaw had views, sunshine |
and protection from the wind |
too bitter to stop on Armstrong |
lovely trails |
along |
the ridge |
reaching |
the views |
on Gothics |
a long ladder |
trailside mushroom |
crossing Johns brook |
returning to star trails |
and a rainbow in New Russia |
