The river cascades down the rocks near our camp and into the river.

I took a picture of the trail sign near our camp. The really cool thing is we've hiked to nearly all of these destinations throughout the years. The mileage to Isberg Pass is quite suspect. In fact, nearly all the signs along our route were bogus. When I was trying to calculate the trail distances before leaving, I noticed that my two paper maps disagreed on the distance of this segment. I checked the computer software but as I mentioned earlier, computer software under estimates distances when there are lots of switchbacks. Since I couldn't get a consistent number, I went to REI and looked at three more paper maps. Each of those gave yet another distance. Amazingly, not one map matched the other. I'm no genius, but I'd "guess" that at least four of the five maps were completely wrong, as is this sign.

As the sun started to set, Andra and I headed back to the lake to get some additional photos.
