Shi Shi Beach - Olympic Peninsula, WA

After dropping our parents to Sea-Tac airport, we decided to spent couple days in Olympic National Park.  Our plan was to spend a night...

Wallowa Mountains adventure - Eagle Cap Wilderness

We wanted to see the Perseid meteor shower. So instead of driving to some dark place and likely getting surrounded by ton of people, we decided to go backpacking.

We started from Two pan trailhead and hike in 7 miles on East Fork Lostine River trail to get to Mirror lake. After setting up the camp, we went up to summit the Eagle Cap mountain (9572 feet). The views from the summit trail kept getting better and better. Once we got to the summit, we could see the entire Lostine River Valley, Hurrican creek drainage, Glacier Lake and of course the entire lake basin area.






On the day 2, after shooting sunrise, we made our way up tp Glacier Lake. It was just 3.5 miles to the Glacier Pass, but that's a steep trail. It took us about 2 hours to get over the pass and to the lake.






On Day 3, we came out the same way we went in. Overall, it was a pretty warm weekend. Somewhat buggy, but not too bad to take all the fun away. Our total mileage was 27 miles with 6800 feet of elevation gain.
