Alaska
Since 2006 I have been visiting a different place in Alaska each year, and hope to continue doing so.
2006: Wrangel/St Elias NP, Seward, and Valdez
2007: Homer and Kachemak Bay State Park
We spent our first night at Lunch Lake, in the Seven Lakes Basin, at about 4450 feet. The side trail leaves the High Divide trail at 4800 feet and quickly drops 400 feet to the lake.
Looking down on Lunch and Clear Lakes from a bit beyond on the High Divide
Round Lake is the first of the lakes you see after you leave the High Divide
Lunch Lake
Campsite Number 1 near Lunch Lake
We saw a bear across the canyon a few hundred yards away
The next morning we had to hike back up those 400 feet to the High Divide to continue on our way
Back to Up to the High Divide or continue to the High Divide
