Harney Peak revisted

We had really enjoyed our hike up to Harney Peak earlier in the season and I had wanted to go back in the Fall when the foliage was turning and it was cooler.  Well closing looms closer and after losing one of our days off, we seized the opportunity on our day off this week.  The foliage was turning color but the temps were rising into the 80's.  Can we really complain?

A shot of Harney Peak and the Fire Tower in the distance - can't see it?

Let's Zooooooooooooooom! 

A Panoramic View 

The final ascent to the Tower.  We don't need any stinkin Stairmaster! 

Humpty Dumpty??

Sweeping views!

What a great hike.  On the drive home we ran into my favorite residents!  I will miss these guys.  Good thing I had some leftover carrots on board!

And the babies are even cuter!

We continued the drive through the Needles Highway

If you have a 3D computer this video is really cool!  My new camera takes 3D pictures and videos.

I guess this will be the last blog for a bit.  Will be busy the rest of this week closing down the Lodge and Cabins.  Hoping to take a break Monday and go to the Native American Day at Crazy Horse for their last Blast of the season and to try their Buffalo Stew!  Otherwise we'll be on the road a week from today!
