    The rising sun hits the mountaintop opposite camp while the Scouts learn about keeping fuel bottles warm :-)  This is a view from the kitchen at Crag Lake.  These were almost the only clouds we saw, and they dissipated soon.  We dissipated soon ourselves since we wanted to cover the 5 or so miles to the pick-up point by 10:30.  The view was pretty eerie; it really was that grey looking; the colors haven't been changed in the photo.
    Wow, how often do you see the bottom of a tree?
    The end of the wilderness.  A fair bit dirtier, and a lot tired, but very happy and proud.  The only boo-boos were a few blisters and a scrape which the Scouts tended themselves.
