I had been wanting to do a trip to Eagle Cap for years, so with the husband laid up with a torn achilles, the mutt and I escaped for a long weekend in September. We started at the Two Pan trailhead and set up camp by Sunshine Lake. It was a nice little spot, had it to ourselves. We spent the second day on a long trail run by a bunch of beautiful lakes. The bummer is I forgot the put the memory card back in my camera, and realized it as I went to take my first photo. So, these are all phone photos. Guess I'll have to go back with a real camera... ![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
This was the mutt's first backpacking trip, first time in a tent. She was a champ. I can't wait for our April trip to the desert.

The mutt decided it was early bedtime and took over my bag. She was not excited when I kicked her off.
