A Summer of Mountains Climbed

Running above Reed Lakes.

 The summer of 2010 was an interesting one here in South Central Alaska.  It started with such beauty and possibility and then turned into a rain soaked mess in the months of June and July.  That did not deter the many, hardy individuals who call this place their home.  Rain or shine, ya gotta take advantage of the summer.  Cause pretty soon, it'll be winter!

Not that that's a bad thing...

So, here are some pics from the mountains that I explored this past summer.  I look forward to seeing them again soon with a blanket of freshly fallen snow. 

Enjoy!
