CHRIS' PHOTO JOURNAL
Fish Lake Trail
1st July, 2010
This trail is the start of the hike towards the nearest road.
Because I have been flying in and out, I had not been along the upper part for some time
and wanted to check the status of the cairns.
It has been a very cold, late spring.
The morning started with a hard frost and sunshine; this is Octopus Lake, about an hour away from the cabins.
The bridge I built 3 years ago, after the first one washed away, was high and dry.
The sun soon disappeared, and above the treeline it was very bleak.
The Mountain Marsh Marigolds and Globeflowers were struggling to open.
But a few lupins had managed to pop up
And there was even a paintbrush giving us a promise of what is to come.
On the way down, Harry and Badger were very interested in a two female Barrow's Goldeneyes on an alpine tarn.
They had covered ten times the distance I did and were very tired puppies on the way back across my lake!
