A nice day hike with a friend from undergrad. Bug pressure was light, wildflowers expiring, grouse chicks growing, and tarns bright teal. We walked over the moraine to the base of the glacier. There were a few icebergs in a tarn so I don't think the glacier quite gone yet - some may remain beneath the talus. Really though, this glacier has been reduced to shrinking snow patches.
