Absolutely amazing, guys! Thanks for sharing pics. The view of Burntboot from that side of Iceberg was hard to recognize at first - incredible terrain. Any idea on mileage and elevation gain?

BTW, I really like this shot. The shadows needed to be brought out a little so I took the liberty of making a few minor fixes in photoshop.

Will you please fix all my photos too?

BRAVO! Wow, what an adventure. You guys sure know how to have fun! I think I like Jeremy with all that facial hair. And Tish, my dear...I can't help but notice your color coordination in quite a few of those shots. Just how much did your pack weigh, hmm? DHM, you are a-smilin in all of your pics! Loved viewing the pics, must have been quite a dilemma to cut the rest. Thank you for sharing!!! I think...I like you guys. Or something.

Fabulous photos. Outstanding trip. Brings back memories of trips into the same area, altho I cannot hope to claim anything even remotely approaching doing all this in one trip! Even better than the obligatory boot shot ... popsicle toes!

Whoa. Kick-ass!

Outstanding, I had done parts of this onseperate trips but never all together. Lots O' Upsies an downsies.

I can hardly believe it. What an incredible trip. Nine days in the wild is about six more than I have ever done. Way to go!!

Great trip and photos. By your own count, how many different lakes or tarns did you visit?

Thanks everyone for all the positive comments - it was incredibly hard to cut photos for the TR. DHM - we know you have some killer photos too.... ! BPJ - We did swim and fish both!! DHM and Jeremy did a bit more swimming than Tisha, though....she was a bit on the cold side the whole trip to take a polar dip. She did soak her feet - which was cold enough! Jeremy had some good luck fishing, too. He at least tried casting in every lake that looked fishable. It was reassuring to hear you were scared off by the steep snow to Lepul - we were both really regretted missing on dropping to that lake but figured it was better to be safe. Yukon - We did have an approximate idea of where we were heading each day (plus we all had covered a major portion of the terrain before, so we were familiar with a lot of the routes). On the portions that were new to us though, it was pretty much picking the best route on the map and whatever the terrain allowed us.....thus the title "I think this goes...." Truth be told, the whole trip just whetted our appetite for another adventure in this area.....can't get enough ALW!!! We might just be planning our other big backpack of the year there instead of the Olympics...we'll see! Mtn Dog - Not exactly sure on the mileage - would have to study a map better to get a guess of the total. Tisha's altimeter registered 23,448 feet elevation gain for the trip. Tom - Thanks for allowing us to display so much of our trip!!!! We really liked what you did to the sea of clouds photo. Tisha was in way too much of a hurry to post the pics to spend any extra time photoshopping them....so thanks for improving that one!! BTW.....we might have looked OK - but we sure didn't feel that way! Yet - We know, we know....Tisha's clothes! Knew she'd get some comments on that! It was really not done on purpose! There must be a conspiracy on lime and purple for women's backpacking gear! Tisha really hated her pack color - but if was comfortable and waterproof so can't complain about that! Plus, her only softshells for the nasty weather were green and purple, too? What gives? Is there something wrong with blue???!!!! Magellan - it's Bears Breast Mountain.....duh! What were you thinking?? Matt - Tisha counted approximately 71 lakes and tarns total.
