After yesterday's great hike on the west side of the range, we decided to take the more leisurely road hike today. The weather was the real treat as once again clouds enveloped the top of the range for most of the morning and our views were accentuated by the drama.

Last time I was here there were thousands of newly planted trees, none of which appear to have survived. It seems a large effort was put into helping reforest the summit area but it looks to have largely failed.

Apparently the bears don't head up into the exposed grassy highlands because the raspberry bushes were plentiful and full of fruit, making for a delicious and ongoing snack all day.
