Sand Lake,  Pacific Crest Trail,  January 2, 2011     page 1 / 19

Libby and Kevin recently visited White Pass to ski. I tagged along, but with my snowshoes, and hiked north along the Pacific Crest Trail. Though the conditions were cold and dry, the trail had already seen visitors and was very easy to follow. A few lingering clouds in the pass burned off for a beautiful blue sky.
