WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 2010
I dragged all my gear across the ferry, where Ginnie picked me up, and we headed up into the mountains for our annual berry picking camping trip.
A Noble Fir tree, and it's odd cone, against the deep blue sky!
Our reason for coming on this camping trip: black huckleberries. Ginnie is standing in a large patch of them. Unfortunately, it was a bad year for berries, and we didn't get nearly as many as in previous years.
So we explored some of the many, many old logging trails - they're letting a lot of them revert, but until they get too overgrown, they make excellent hiking trails.
Beautiful weather, cool clouds, blue sky, great mountains!
