Spray Lakes Reservoir and the mountain in center is Mount Nestor. I have to try that one some times.

These little dudes scared me. They didn't mind my present and kept eating. I didn't know they were right there and I wasn't expecting to see animals so close.

It was very smoky day. Probably the worst of all entire summer I hiked. Who's smoking?

Looks like there are three peaks but actually only two of them have name. Left one is Mount Lougheed, and right one is Wind Mountain. The middle is unnamed.
