Trail Becomes Steeper
Leaving Ruane 11 lake, we rode
a winding trail through grassy
meadows, emerging into a wood­
ed section at the western base
of the mountain. The trees at
thia point were Stubby pine and
cedar. The trail becar-e st«*eper;

amount of urging on the part of
us humans could swerve them
from their course or increase
their speed one bit.
"White M>ter" is the name of
the first glacial stream we ford­
ed that day. It comes crashing
out of the rocks near the top of
the mountain apparently, gain-

But the animals needed no urg-

"Top of the World“
We drew rein to get our eyes
full of the panorama spread out
before us Hundreds of acres of
tree-covered mountains, blue tn
the distance, stretched along the
full length of the Cascade range

and past a huge slide where an
avalanche, during spring thaws,
had rushed down the slope of
the mountain, carrying boulders
and trees before it into the can­
yon below.
"Cove creek” was the second
glacial torrent we crossed It
was not as forbidding as White
Water, but rough enough to
prove interesting.
And then, suddenly, we were
at Hunt’* cove, a sheltered nook
on the south side of Jefferson,
nestling among the towering
rock wall* at the base of whl«Ji

us arrived, however. The others

campfire old songs were revived;
old stories retold. We admitted
that we were a jolly, congenial
group, practically strangers to
each other when we left Breiten-
bush a few mornings ago but
such camaraderie as existed now!
Hazel Jean and Gerry sluiced oft

The eight miles of trail from
Hunt’s cove to Marion lake were
covered in about 3^ hours, and
it was a wet and bedraggled
group that descended on the
Marion lake guard station.
“Come right in and make your­
selves at home," offered Ranger
Klutke, which was a mistake, for
we did just that. We packed our­
selves on the bench behind his
kitchen stove, and we draped our
wet clothes in front of the open
blaze of his fireplace. No coffee
ever tasted better than that he
brewed for us. The rain, rare in
the Cascades at this season
.stopped shortly after we left
the ranger station, and from two
miles beyond that point on into
Marion Forks we traveled our
first road again.
It was with genuine regret
that the party divided. We all
wished that time had permitted
u* to make the full 3O-day trip
with Hugh along the entire
length of the Sky Line trail,
from Cascade Locks to Crater
lake. However, we're going back
again. No pack trip, planned and

Nor can any lover of nature af­
