Metolius











Thought I'd share some pictures from my overnight trip to the Metolius.  There was an osprey nest across the river from where I camped.  At dusk, one of went flying up river.  About half an hour later, he came flying back with a big fish in his talons.  He circled around the nest and flew by me a few times.  I think he just wanted to show off his catch like all fisherman want to.

Backcountry Lake



What is this?  A blog post?  With pictures?!?!  Life has gotten in the way of having fun recently.  Britt and I went for an overnight backpacking trip.  We didn't expect perfect weather or solitude, but we were hoping for a little.  Unfortunately, the lake was crowded and the weather on Saturday was miserable.  Seeing how it snowed there the night before, it could have been much worse.  Sunday morning was beautiful.  The lake was calm, the sun was out and we got a great view of Three Fingered Jack.  I managed to catch some fish (and get a little too much sun).    I'm feeling a little sore today, but am looking forward to the next adventure.
