Anybody want to go here?

Because of a busy work schedule and covering for a sabbatical last year, I haven't been backpacking in almost two years. This really is one of my favorite things to do so I have a real itch that needs to be scratched!! I have my first trip of the summer planned. I'm going to Lake Ingalls up the Teanaway River valley. The picture on this post is of Lake Ingalls as it reflects Mt Stuart in the distance.

I plan to leave the afternoon of June 28th and return on the 30th. It's a 4.5 mile hike from trailhead to lake with 2600' of elevation gain. I may be bringing my daughter Katie along as she loves to backpack with Dad. I have one other friend confirmed for the trip. Let me know if you'd like to come a long. I have gear to loan so don't let that be the reason you wouldn't go. Can you hear that..........it's the outdoors calling. I almost said it was nature calling, but that has an entirely different connotation.
