Beautiful Echo Lake!

Went hiking at Echo Lake on Sunday June 10 for Janna's Birthday!!!
 Looking up from the trail heading out
 The snow capped peaks in the background
 Janna holding up the giant boulders
 An unreal sight...so beautiful and pristine

Bob Gnarley Tree lol
 Our new cabin! (uh huh in our dreams...)

 Random hikers... JK Janna & Craig!
 Europe's topography has nothing on the US for stunning views and vistas!
 Looking back at Upper Echo Lake from the direction we came about 3.5 miles out.
Confirmed with botanical expert Kellie this is Wild Hosta
 Me and my Birthday Kid
 Tiny Rainbow Trout

 Majestic View!
 Back down the trail.
 This is where I said "I don't wanna go home, I don't wanna go home..."
 A natural arch of trees
 Framed by a huge boulder on the left and a huge tree on the right.

 Looking up from the trail
Split tree, each half still growing independent of each other.
