I set off for a 35+ mile run deep into the Lick Creek Range near Lick Creek Summit. Bushwhacking and non-existent trails cut the run short to around 13 miles. Oh well, the country was beautiful, the huckleberries were bountiful and the day was still a great success. To those who say the huckleberry crop is weak this year, you should really see it above 7,000'. Unbelievable.

Hum Lake. The path I came in on is on the right side of photo. The path shown on maps from Hum Lake is not there. Pure bushwhack from here on out. |

Gorgeous Duck Lake: 1 more easy mile to the truck. |
