It was a beautiful sunrise that seemed to promise a sunny day, but, at least during my brief visit, there was only watery sunlight under a high, thin cloud cover.
I was amazed at how little snow remained on Silver Star - looks like only a few patches. It was also really windy - as evidenced by the whitecaps on the Columbia.
I went a little further up the trail toward Devil’s Rest to get a view back toward Angel’s Rest. What doesn’t show is the strong wind slicing across the exposed ridge. I think this was one of the few times I didn’t see anyone on Angel’s Rest.
A short hike but a good one. Nothing like a little restorative hike in the woods to make cubicle life just a little more bearable.
