Layover Day, Edge of the Mountains - Aug 8

 Since  it was our last chance for access to the mountains, we stayed an extra day. Glen, Dale, Leo and I hiked up above the treeline, but it was extremely muggy and tough going in the muskeg, so we soon called it a day and hiked back down.

Stopping for blueberries 

Resting on the ridge above the campsite

We did see our first and only cloudberries, but found them not very tasty.

Also cool looking mushrooms in the reindeer moss.

After I went to bed the sun came out and lit up the mountains, a fitting goodbye to the mountainous portion of the Snake River.
