Enchantments

Still recovering from a cold after doing the enchantments with Ryan and Chris.

Rough facts:
1,200 ft start
7,400 high camp
8,440 ft summit reached (#70 on Washington 100)
Lots of larches in their prime(a relatively rare coniferous tree that has needles that change bright yellow in fall)
1 goat raider looking for goodies
5+ cold looking lakes
sub 30: our tent temperature on Sunday morning.
One of the most beautiful places. Every thing above 6400 ft is either small meadows, bright yellow Larches, white granite, and blue water.
