lake.jpg
This is simply a wonderful image. Baldy mountain rises behind a lake that can be found on Wilson Mesa. A pine tree dotted plain fills the gap between the two, and you can almost feel the wind blowing, causing the reeds to move back and forth.

baldytown.jpg
This picture was taken from Baldy Town, the day after climbing Baldy, it was a great location, because not only could you get a great shot of Baldy, but you could see the Tooth of Time, our finishing point, on the horizon.

bear.jpg
This one is here, just because it was really cool to run into the bear. In hindsight, however, getting this close to take a photo probably wasn't the greatest idea in the world.
