I miss the long summer days in Alaska. Caewyn and I went up to the Glen Alps tonight around 11 pm, and there was still lots of sun left.

We had some nice weather this Memorial Day. This is looking off the deck of Caewyn’s and my new place.
Little late posting these, but my buddy Chris and I attempted the Denny Creek trail a couple of weeks ago. Again there was too much snow to make it our destination (Lake Melakwa?). We had a couple of guests his little girl, Flora, and his dog, Porter. It was a beautiful day, so I did get some good pics!

At the LA Galaxy game with Jared.
Today I hiked Bandera Ridge. I didn’t make it to the top of the mountain because the snow was too deep and no path had been made yet. Trudging through knee deep snow up steep mountain slopes is pretty tough.

Today I hiked Mailbox. Snow on the upper third of it, so I was glad I brought my crampons!
The Mailbox climb is easily the most strenuous and treacherous day hike I’ve done in Washington. It’s strenuous because the trail ascends nearly 4000′ in 2.8 miles. It’s treacherous because the trail is often wet with a tremendous amount of exposed roots, which can be slippery and cause a hiker to trip (especially on the way down).

Sunset the first day.

Caewyn is happy these days.

I think being a deconstruction worker would be a blast!
Even the graffiti is emo:
