Picture Peak
Here's another one from backpacking last month. My daughter and I spent the day hiking and photographing the many lakes, streams, and meadows in this amazing valley.
Thanks,
Rudy

Very nice indeed, Rudy. From the sounds of your trip it must have been an exciting outing overall.

Thanks for the comments.
Robert, Picture Peak is next to Hungry Packer Lake. The trail starts at Lake Sabrina. The peak is not named on the USGS maps.

Wonderful sierra scene Rudy, the flowers and stream fill up the foreground nicely, and the peak is, well, picturesque :wink:
