Route: Stuart Lake trailhead past Colchuck Lake and up Aasgard Pass.
Summits: Enchantment Peak (northeast peak and almost southwest spire), Little Anapurna
Elevation gained: Darned if I know
Miles round trip: A lot
After you say The Enchantments, what else is left to say?
 A big moon in July 2007 produced an eerie look in the Enchantments.  The Temple  Mountain goats at play, The Enchantments, Washington. Nikon D50, Nikkor 200mm f4 Ai

Love that "Kids will be kids" photo. Even taken in a place where good goat pics are hard to avoid, that one is outstanding.

Very nice TR. One can only take so many photo onslaughts. It's great to see some brevity.

Nowhere have I seen as many goats as when we were in there for three days in early August a few years ago. Hanging around camp, on the way to peaks; even had one follow us up the summit block of Cannon Mtn.

So does anybody know if the spire southwest of the northeast summit of Enchantment Peak is actually higher? It looked that way.

Must have been cool to have clear skies and a full moon up there! The nice folks at the ranger station read me your exact description when I asked about conditions. Did you give them a report or are they using nwhikers?
