Mt Daniel

When last we spoke, there was rain, thunder and all manner of complicated weather.  But, also a few moments when the moon shown through.

Ann got this "art shot". Some fog was forming in the bay with the moon overhead.

The variable weather kept up most of the night, but broke in the morning to blue sky.  It beckoned a hike.  Oh, did someone say Mt Daniel??!  Well, Ann did and I of course followed.  All 10 miles and 1500 vertical feet.  Yipes!!

So, the hike was lovely.  Past a gorgeous lake and straight up the hill.  Sometimes very straight up.  Oh well, the pics will show it was worth it.

Roughly, this shows we walked the road from the Garden Bay harbor, around the lake then up the trail to the summit and back.

View from the top looking north (where we're eventually going).

We can see Charisma waaaayyy down in the cove.

Whew, made it!

We had a lovely picnic overlooking Pender Harbor.

EagleCam!!!!

Ok, we’re hangin’ here at least another day or so.

One thought on “Mt Daniel

  1. Cool art picture. Sandburg had it right.
    “The fog comes
    on little cat feet.

    It sits looking
    over harbor and city
    on silent haunches
    and then moves on.”

    Talk about climbing up to the crow’s nest. Wow. That’s a serious top down view you had. I hope you celebrated the summit with an appropriate libation.
