The prayer stacks at the entrance of the park. These things go for at least a mile. There were people building new ones when we were there as well. Don't knock them over, supposedly it is one year of bad luck for each rock.
This is one section of the beautiful river along the trail. You can see how clear it is and how clean it is. Absolutely beautiful the whole way... until you start going up and lose sight of it.
You can see the beautiful colours of the Maple Leafs on the trail. I loved this photo because of the way the leaf was breaking....
Matt and I on the trail
The temple near the top of the mountain. We hiked for another 2 hours or so after this.
Here is a picture of the peak Kyle and I went to. So high!!! The dust was coming in, so its not the best picture... but you can still make out how high we were.
Wide angle shot of Kyle's face.
Here is Kyle on the way down.... so steep and our knees were killing us. There were only small sections of stairs and mostly loose rocks and shale.
This was the last mountain shelter we saw and the one we waited for Matt to catch up with us, Yongpok Shelter. It got dark shortly after this.
Here is a picture of the three of us on a rock along the trail. Giving the obligatory "peace" sign
Here's Kyle and I, this is near the beginning, but getting warmer and tired since we have our fleece shirts off.
Here we are again.... this is at the beginning of the hike, which is why we don't look as tired and I still have my fleece on.
