The drive up to the parking lot (above Sandon).
Idaho Peak
Aug 2/10
One of the more amazing views in the Kootenays, is from the top of Idaho Peak.
It's hard to express the sense of awe that I got when we finally made it to the top. It was a long, hard climb for me,
but well worth it.
I hope the pictures speak for themselves, with or without the "narratives".
Still going up...lots of switchbacks & a narrow road.
The trail leading to the lookout on Idaho Peak.
Just some of the wildflowers up there.
Almost at the top.
Views from the top.
Me & Peppy at the lookout. It's not foggy, it's smokey from forest fires.
My thought for today:
"Sometimes I think I'm lucky to be naive. If I had known how much time & effort it would take to get to this point... I probably wouldn't be here :) "
The drive back down is no less amazing.
