Tenas Lakes Hike

 

                                         One of Tenas Lakes, Scott Mt. in the background.

                                I love this group of small lakes above Scott and Benson Lakes.

 I am usually sunbathing on the south facing rocks when we come in September. Not this time, looking for    high ground to catch a breeze to blow the mosquitoes away. 

                  View of Mt Washington on the Pacific Crest Trail between our camp and the summit.

Four in One Cone Hike

More snow than I expected on the trail.

Even snow when I reached the lava.
