Had a good trip up Company Creek Trail on Saturday. Very steep and dry. Except for a chipmunk, mostly did macro work along the trail: lupine, Indian paintbrush, more calypso orchids, etc. until I reached the meadow. It looked like it was from the sound of music. Did a couple of pans and shot some more arrowleaf balsamroot.
Stopped again at the Pastry Company and was invited to the Trillium Festival, a sort of community festival with performances by the school's students and community members. About an hour in to it, bad news came: there was a plane crash at the lake and two people were badly injured. The performances were cancelled and many went to the landing to see if they were needed; I just tried to stay out of the way. Although I didn't know the injured, I felt badly for the tragedy and concern expressed by the community. It seemed that community as a whole was wounded by the accident.
Later that evening shot some sunset shots up the lake. Stayed up late to finish backups and write a
disk for Ron Scutt of the Festival, until it broke up.

Sunday
Lazy day, very quiet outside. Will go for one more shot at the Rainbow Loop Trail because the views were so good. This time I will come back down the way I went up, because it will be shorter. Plan to go later in the afternoon for different light.
Did some final printing to put up since we will pick the image for the NPS tomorrow. Did a couple of B&W and like they way they came out. Plan to pack the printer tonight, unless I am too tired from the hike.
Will post pictures for the last few days, revise earlier blogs, and do a summation and recommendations when I return home.
