We drove to Baker City where we spent the night, then drove to Grandjean to hike the Grand Sawtooth Loop. 5 nights and 6 days on the trail, then we headed through Stanley to Redfish Lake Lodge to check it out. We then spend one more night at Fourth of July Lake before heading back to Oregon. Very scenic hike.
The pictures are not in the exact order we saw them, but pretty close.... Thanks Blogger for a great user interface.... :(
