The day after Heidi arrived we headed a couple hours north to Hatcher Pass for a hike.

A couple other friends joined us for the gorgeous day hike

Picturesque Lower Reed Lake with a beautiful waterfall at the north end (on the left side of the photo) was where we stopped for lunch

Monica tested the water...it was cold!

Queen of the rock!

After a relaxing lunch break we decided to head back to the trailhead

We learned that Monica is part Dall Sheep...she just bounds around on the boulders without a care in the world!

Picking our way back though the boulders

What incredible scenery!
