The First Day of Hiking

Morning brought a beautiful blue sky and a day made for hiking. First off it was coffee and a little breakfast followed by cleaning up and getting ready to hike. Today’s destination would be Quartz Lake. Located about two miles off the main road this little lake is accessible by hiking or driving. Our hike was quiet and very pleasant. We were the only ones at the lake and we ran into know one the entire day.

Baka swam and the group explored. Lunch time came and we sat at the edge of the blue green water, watching trout swim by and an eagle glide on the mountain breezes. It doesn’t get much better then that.

Back at camp Daren and Marcy prepared a wonderful dinner of Dutch Oven Enchiladas and salad. We ate or fill and sat around the campfire talking. You could not have asked for a better day.
