Day 2 we backpacked up Little Queens River for about 6.5 miles before we where both just plain tired. On day 3 we backpacked up to the trail head for Browns Lake and found that there was too much snow to find the trail, so we headed back about 2 miles and set up camp. The next day we backpacked back to the car. We discovered that it's a whole lot faster to hike BACK than to hike TO. Funny how that works.

This river crossing was suposed to be ankle deep. It turns out that early in the year it is knee deep... for me.

Nap Time.
Some very scenic views of the sawtooths.
On our way back to the "ankle" deep forge, we found a log bridge about 100 feet up stream. We didn't get wet this time around.
Here we are after two nights and three days of backpacking.
