OK folks, Eric came to the rescue and I think for most Shutterfly cognoscenti the solution was simple: I had to create a free webpage via Shutterfly. I did this and installed the link in the original report. I'm about to check to see if the photos come up. If they don't I'll go back and jump off one of the peaks that we recently visited (one with a lake below).

OK, looks like they took; but, the photo files were relatively low resolution jpegs. I may try to get higher resolution shots uploaded at some point. For now, these will give an idea of snow & degres of green!

No need to jump CG they are up, and were worth the wait. Thanks

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Most of us will never get to that remote area...2 people in 11 days! so it is great to be able to enjoy it through your great trip report, thanks for sharing.

I can see them too! Thanks so much for sharing. Rich expressed the exact sentiment why I was so eager to see the pictures; it's unlikely that I'll be able to see a lot of those sights myself, so viewing pictures from someone else's report is as good as it's going to get.
