Annette Lake
Mike went with a group of scouts on a backpack trip to Annette Lake in the Cascade Mountains as a part of their preparations for a 50-miler this Summer.  Unfortunately, it was a very small group who were able to make it (two to be precise), which was a shame because it was a beautiful hike, and we enjoyed sunny weather this weekend.  Suzanne and I hiked the trail the weekend before this outing, in order to assess trail conditions and provide details to the scouts as they prepared.  Amazingly, the lake was completely frozen over when we went, but it had almost entirely thawed just one week later, as seen from the photo below!
