Marys Peak

Parking Lot on Marys Peak

Yesterday afternoon, David and LaVerne Knaupp, neighbors of ours, returned from a picnic on Mary's Peak. They showed us photos of some strange birds they saw. We recognized them right away as Gray-crowned Rosy Finches. With warm weather and temperatures in the upper 80's forecasted for Saturday, Jeanette came up with the idea  to escape from the heat of the valley and travel to Mary's Peak for some hiking and birding. And we would have an excuse to test out and enjoy another trip with our new Winnabego Pocket camping van.

Jim likes the handy work station

Jeanette likes the comfy bed to relax on


 

Happiness is where two hearts align in the great out of doors, and a love shared in adventure. Jeanette and I have shared many adventures here on Mary's Peak over the years. Camping, hiking, and photographing wild flowers and birds. Today we were reminded that we are beyond grateful for our good fortune.
