Location: Mount Lola
Participants: dookey67, Vets
Obligatory soundtrack:

While trying to take a shortcut to get closer to the snow we ran into a bit of an obstacle.
Vets tries to clear the road:

Then a buck threatened to charge dookey's truck:

You'll see more of him later.

We noticed that some other things were strange there. Dookey67 thought that the water in his hydration system tasted like champagne. I thought that the water in my hydration system tasted like cherry cola...

dookey67 starts down:

More patches as well as Independence Lake and Stampede Reservoir can be seen in the background.

Vets:

dookey67 on another patch:

Vets:

Vets on the hike out with some of our tracks in the background:

While we only got to three different patches, this area will be well worth a return trip earlier next spring/summer.
That is if the buck allows dookey's truck to pass his laser beams:

I know what I am
And in bed I'm a man
But what is Dookey?

Nice to see you guys are still getting after it even without the electric candle light.

Just a side note...In the UK version it is "Coca Cola", but in the US, Coke wouldn't let them sing that, so they had to change it to "Cherry Cola".
