A January Hike!

Deja and I decided to start by headin' up Chadburn Lake Road.
Instead of following the road down, we crossed the road...
...and kept climbing.
The higher...
we hiked...
the better...
the view!
Deja and I like to watch the birds surf off the edge of the cliff! 
Schwatka Lake and...
the surrounding mountains!
Snow-covered, wind-swept clay cliffs
Time for a roll in the snow!
A winter wonderland
On the decline, there is an opening in the trees that gives us an amazing view of the lake!
I'm not sure of the correct term for this, but I call it "para-ice skiing"!
Deja patiently waiting for me
Headin' down toward the Fish Ladder.
We made it just as the sun was beginning to set.
Mike greeted us at the door.  Check out of the clinging mini-snowballs Deja brought home with her!
