Hume Lake 2008 - Pictures (as promised)

Sara and a deer that came really close to our tent in our campsite.

Jeremiah cutting wood for our fires (even I helped saw them up - hard work that is!)

A beautiful scenic shot on our way to the Death Hike.

Entrance to the Death Hike...doesn't look too bad from here.

Right before the Death Hike.

Quick Photo-opt.

The view as we hiked down (yes, that's Boulder Creek)

A quick break in the shade (and it was actually bugless here!)

Boulder Creek! We made it!

The water was so clear.

Down at Boulder Creek.

Still looking pretty good after the hike down :)

(We had no clue at this point how tuff the hike up would be.)

Fellow Death Hiker

One of the only pictures of us on our way back up - we were trying to catch our breath and get away from the bugs as quickly as possible to do much else.

We made it back to the fork in the road!

Camp 7 here we come!

The Big Sequoias

It's the last stretch and then we're done!

Almost there... the truck is just around the bend. (We got the end of the hike on video and unfortunately didn't take any pictures of it.)

Jeremiah just returned from Paintball - the day after the Death Hike.

Needless-to-day, I wanted to relax that day.

Relaxing at the Cove.

So cute!

The Benne Family.

Jeremiah on the Log.

And so here I am relaxing at the Cove.

Entrance to Crystal Cave.

Inside Crystal Cave. (The pictures don't do it justice.)

Us at the Giant Sherman.

Fun on the Log once again.
