Most Serene

2500ft altitude gain in 3.6 miles (oh, that's not including the quick jaunt up to Bridal Veil Falls and back) so this was a hike sans-kids.

Hard work for unfit people like me, but the reward at Lake Serene was more than worth the effort.

Thanks much++ to Martin for getting it together (although compared to cycling over theHimalayas, I think we had it easy). more on flickr and on local.live.com Note: This post was updated on 2020-12-24 to remove broken links
