It was wild flower season and one of the most beautiful natural phenomena that I have ever seen and explored. I remember hiking very early in the morning up to the snow line and to see the glacier and having the 'summit-ers' race by us on the trail in a rush to get to the summit base camp. I was amazed they could carry that much weight in their packs and move so fast! What a gorgeous day and a beautiful memory ... thanks!
