How I got lost was I decided to repeat a trip taken with my sister Samantha more than 18 years ago since that's how long my husband and I have been together. I remembered we went up the road to Bumping Lake and then followed a forest road that came out on top of the Pacific Crest with views of Mt. St. Helens, Mt. Adams, Mt. Rainier, and Mt. Adams spread out before us in 360. Oops, that was then.
We met my 2 sisters, her husband, my mom at the road into Bumping Lake. After we reached Bumping Lake, we took a wrong turn, or maybe not, but we kept going uphill then downhill and staying in a valley when I expected to go steadily uphill. I didn't remember the dam. Anyway, after bumping along a forestry road and getting our cars all dusty we reached a spot that wasn't as easily passed and also ran out of time and gas.
We returned to Bumping Lake and decided to do the photo bit. Here's all of us hams:
Me, mom, my sister and husband.
The two sisters.
