Second Backpacking Trip

I'm back into civilization again after a second backpacking trip.  The trails I hiked this time did not have the incredible vistas of the route I took a couple of weeks ago, but the Tileston Meadows, Lost Lake and Gem Lake were lovely in a quiet way.

I can feel the adventure winding down--it's been incredible but "to every thing there is a season."  I saw some Aspens turning yellow on my hike out of the mountains, so it's easy to see that the season is turning....  Next week I'll be back in Chicago!--it will be good to see all my friends there after a long summer away!
