Berg Lake Trail 2013, a set on Flickr.
I'm late posting this here, given that I posted it to FB shortly after I got the pictures up.
It's been about 7 years since we did any backpacking. That's about the time I fell off my bike on the way to work and messed up my shoulder for a while. And life in general interfered with getting back out on the trail.
I'm pretty pleased that, although we took it easier (2 days to get into Berg instead of trying to do it in 1), we were still able to get out there. Of the three times we've gone into Snowbird Pass now, this was easily the best I've felt coming back from that hike. Hurrah for reasonable fitness and better boots.
I took about 430 pictures all told, which is a real testament to cheap storage. This photo set is 160 of what I felt were probably the best of those. Enjoy!
