Howdy All :)

Last Friday, Sister Sally, Miracle Marilyn and I went up Forsee to Anderson peak.

We started going XC up the ridge a bit below the turn off to Jackstraw springs.

Guess whose foot prints? Hint -- broken left ankle :wink:

Looking towards Big Bear lake.





Image

Beautiful, pristine snow.

Lunch on top of Anderson looking towards San Gorgonio -- can't beat that view :lol:

Yesterday, Marilyn and I went up west San Bernardino peak. Starting going XC a bit above the wooden bench.

Apparently, some other folks had been up :wink:

Back on the trail near the wooden bench -- gorgeous green valley.

Nice shots Ellen. I especially like the ones with the almost ominously low hanging clouds. That's a lot of snow for the end of May!
