This was a spring hike through the recent Payette burn.
Only three or four years previous, this area was heavily forested with
soft needle duff obscuring the tread of the trail. It's quite different
now, but also beautiful.
We don't get to hike with Mariel very often, so this was
a treat. First we hiked to Hard Lake.
Then we went over the pass.
We had lunch at Upper Hazard Lake.
John thought it was pretty special to spend time with Mariel. Mariel
didn't seem so sure.
