Goats' Notes: Tunnel Creek

This was an especially adventuresome hike for me. The trail was snow covered at the little pond below Harrison Lake. I followed footprints well beyond the actual trail up to Harrison Lake. I did notice footprints going back to the actual trail, but ignored them. I have been on this trail many times so I thought I could just go cross country up to the lake. I was not successful. I used the track-back feature on my GPS to get back to the pond and saw the location of Harrison Lake. I had a conversation with Paul on the radio that said the group was just leaving Valhalla so I had time to get to the lake. I then used the GPS to find the lake, again going cross country. Lesson learned (again), find the trail. These notes were a big challenge. There were 6 photographers at different parts of the hike. I tried my best to get them in a meaningful sequence and keep the file size reasonable. So many great photos. More than I could include. It turned out to be a great hike. John
