Bear Lakes Basin evening overview. John Muir Wilderness. August 2014

Same evening, vanbro in frame doing his thing.

Moments later, Mikebro taking in the view. It was a wee bit chilly that night!

From a batch of freshly edited 2010 images - heading up to Trail Crest July 28, 2010. Snow in late July, when will we see that again?

Seeing that photo 45 minutes before lunchtime is cruel and unusual punishment.

Now why would thieves want to break into this building? To steal two rolls of toilet paper and some DEET?
