Watched the weather all week as it kept getting better and better and when we get a day like today on the island you learn not to waste it. Got up early and met up with a friend, Troy, Left the house at 06:20 and started hiking ended up not getting back to the house until 11:45 tired and hungry. We started up the hill it was cool and calm a real cadillac of a day. Takes about an hour to get up through the timber until you get into the open where you need to put the snowshoes on. We crossed a couple muskegs looking towards the ridge we where heading upHere's a picture of me Troy snapped after we crossed the muskeg and broke out of the timber on the ridge top here's another fine photo looking back towards where we had came from on the ridge and on I snapped of Troy while taking a break before the final assault towards the repeater atop the Mt. here's a nice pic of our destination the top and the repeater from where Troy stood in the last pic. The ground got very steep and the snow was unstable so we cut short our hike just a hunnert yrds shy of the repeater but I did get this one pic of the 40' container that houses much of the electrical equipment and before we started back down I side hilled over and took this one photo of the Pacific from up near the top. All in all it was a very enjoyable morning all tho much hard work was involved especially on my part as I seem to keep getting older every year and Troy is a solid 11 years younger than I and works me hard as I would him where the shoe on the other foot. I hope you enjoy this post nearly as much as I. Dennis

You are a blessed man! Thanks for sharing the experience with us!
