Maverick, your link above is for an area somewhere near French lake and Pine Creek Pass.

Interesting, when I click on it it shows the correct location for the pass.
Here is an alternative if that link doesn't work for the OP:

Very nice trip report and pictures. Sure glad to read that the wife and twins are okay.

we went around the Chocolate Lakes we had this most spectacular view looking back. It was a simple moment, but this picture has captured me and I now have it hanging in my office.

This does capture a nice moment. Funny thing, when I worked in a corporate environment lots of people had pictures of mountain scenes hanging in their office. When in the back country, I have yet to see a picture of anyone's office hanging in their tent.

Shawn - well said!

And since I work in a suit and tie world, the pictures and memories I have from my various wilderness excursions are that much more important.

Maverick and Mike - thanks for the additional info and links.
