Not excited about leaving |
We were sad to leave our amazing relaxing oasis on day 35. We waited as long as we dared, eating a nice breakfast and lunch. Then, they bussed us back out to the trail head and we started on our way again.

Laura, looking badass |
It was a pretty easy half-day hike although it was a little warm. We were surrounded by towering peaks of the norther cascades but there were also pretty long sections of forest.

Lots of berry bushes... and bears |
We eventually stopped at a campsite where two forks of the Stehekin river met. Here, we met a nice older hiker who lived in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. She showed us her cool food bag made of kevlar. You just tie it to a tree and a bear can't get into it because the fabric is too strong. The down side: The bear could likely smash your food inside the bag... also, it has not been approved in some parks like Yosemite.

Our campsite |
We took it easy and rested with the intention of hiking a full day on day 36. We had hiked about 8 miles and were excited to be approaching Canada!

Pretty water at North Fork |
