Lava Lake before thunderstorm
Waiting for the thunderstorm
We skirted the edges of a thunderstorm while ascending to the amphitheatres of 11894. After 20 Mins of waiting we decided to boldly go... and came away telling the tale.

View from Lost Eagle Peak
Lost Eagle Peak really consists of a vast area of rock, rather akin to pictures from the Mars rovers. Mountains adorn the horizon, and pikas roam (erhem) the stony fields in quest for hay.
