Upper Priest Lake Redux
Man did I ever need to get out today...
Managed to work out a lot of frustration on hapless H20 molecules and got to see a couple neat critters in the process. On the way out, we saw a moose calf feeding, who I named Morty Moose. Mama Moose was no where to be seen, but had to have been near, because nothing bothered ol' Morty.
Now that I'm through with indentured servitude for a while, scraggly granite crags are calling my name. You can see a couple in the background that will soon be conquered. It's really only fun to climb hills that you can actually see off the top of.
For the record, Zuzu remains unimpressed with both my navigation skills and my speed of travel. I, of course, keep reminding her majesty that I can very nearly keep pace with the motorboats through the no-wake zones.
Zuzu remains unimpressed...
On the way back, we got to meet a beaver that was just a tad camera shy:
And for the piece de resistance, when we went by the grass field, voila! Mama Moose. For the record, Mama Moose is much more camera shy than Morty Moose. Don't let that lull you into thinking that Morty is the petting type, because Mama will probably stomp you into a tectonic plate if you get between her and Morty.
Just another great day in North Idaho.
