Nate, Carrie, Simon, and I all had a nice weekend at the cabin. Nate and I hiked Wolverine and barely made it home in the dark before the storm arrived. Nate was getting buzzed by bats in the dark and my knees hurt like crazy. I'm a new fan of those trekking poles though. I don't think I'd have made it home if Nate hadn't brought them. It was a great hike and surprisingly lonely for a Labor Day weekend. There were still some nice flowers near the top and absolutely no snow anywhere.
The next day we hiked over to get Andy's latest geocache and made a loop from the Twin Lakes trail over to the Solitude trail and back. Simon got to hike some of the way on his own since they didn't have his backpack and he seemed to really like it. The storm came in really strong that afternoon with machine gun hail and really close lightening.
Seems like we managed to squeeze a great cabin trip into two days. Hard hike, great food, big storm, a few naps, and game of balls.

Wow - what a fun weekend. We mostly worked! Simon looks rather weary in that last picture. I guess you guys wore him right out. That's hard to do.
Have a great week
