WHite Chief Peak / 8-13-06
I'm beginning to think I make that crazy drive to Mineral King just for the cheeseburgers. Anyway, here's a TR.

Nice pics Shawn! Oh man, you have no idea - we went to the Little Kern suspension bridge via Jerkey this weekend, and Sat was very smoky and no views but on the way out yesterday (Sun) the wind had changed and it was clear. Up north towards the head of the drainage by Florence/Vandever you could see the fire burning away. It didn't look super big but it sure was putting out alot of smoke. It was about 1/2 way up to the treeline and headed up. Fortunately it seems to be in a bit of a pocket, hopefully they'll get it under control.
Nice trip, man!
Nice trip, man!

Thanks for the comments -
It looks like I missed the worst part of the smoke Krudler - nice photo.
Kathy - I only used the chicken wire routine in May. FWIW, I didn't see any Marmots around the parking lots on Sunday. The trailhead parking to Sawtooth was completely full. I think your car will be fine in September.

PS. Look forward to meeting you and the gang for Ritter at the end of the month.
