A little waterfalls, about a mile from the trailhead

A small, lower section of Florence Falls

A small part of the upper portion of Florence Falls

A moose wandered into camp at Gunsight. There is a picture on the Video page, that is a head on shot. Get a better idea of how wide the antlers were.

This starts our off-trail climb to Jackson Glacier.. and what a climb it was.

Many things to crawl over to get there.

Looking at a rock slide we just hiked through.

I believe this is looking up towards Mt. Jackson.

Chris goes across a snow field ahead of us, still heading towards Jackson Glacier.

Dad's turn to head across a patch of snow.

Now, if Bill slips and I catch him... who catches me?

Getting closer to Jackson, not to far at this point.

Just about there. That is Jackson Glacier in the back on the right.

Looking towards the top of Jackson Glacier.

Some of the cracks on Jackson.

This picture and the next one gives you a good perspective of how big things were up there.

Still see the 2 people in the background?

Time to start heading down.

Looking towards the bottom of Jackson.

A view of Jackson Glacier, with dad in the middle of the picture to give you another perspective of how big Jackson is.

A view of Gunsight Lake and campground.. from around 1000-1500 feet up. Not sure exactly how high, but it's a bit above it.

Looking across Gunsight Lake and towards the pass.

A medow at the campground.

Leaving Gunsight and heading towards Reynolds creek campground.

The first of many waterfalls close to Reynolds Creek.

On the way up to Red Eagle Lake.

Looking across Red Eagle Lake

Another view across Red Eagle.

Chris enjoying the view across Red Eagle.

Heading out from Red Eagle.

A picture of the Loop. I have video of the loop and the entire trip on the video's page.
