Keechelus Lake Snow Park 02-Feb-2002

Topographical Map of the trip generated with my GPS and MapSource

Today was our second snowshoeing adventure. The group who went out today was Cody, Jon, Nuria, Jill, and myself. (I apologize for not having a picture of me yet, but others took pictures and when I get one, I will go back and add it. Note: It will probably be the time I fell down the hill, so it should be humorous as well)

We went back to the Keechelus Lake Snow Park for the hike but we went a different path this time. This way took us to the earthen dam, which we walked on for just over half a mile. The entire round trip was three miles.

Once we got on the earthen dam, Cody convinced this cross-country skier that she could make it strait down the dam. She almost did but took a good face plant at the bottom. Here is the picture of the poor woman who trusted Cody (hopefully for the last time).

The weather was beautiful and warmer than last week. All in all it was a good workout.

This week, I am trying something new. I downloaded some software to make a panoramic view by piecing together pictures. I have it one of two ways.

The best way is a Quicktime movie. You can scan through the image as though you were standing where I was. This version is 1.7 Meg and is not recommended for low bandwidth users. If you do not have Quicktime, you can get it from http://www.quicktime.com. Here is the image in this format.
The second best way is a long jpeg. This is only 347K and you should be able to view it just fine that way. It is not as impressive as the Quicktime format, but it is a much smaller download. Here is the image in this format.

Here are some pictures from the trip:
