Hitchhiking Trip

I've been wanting to hitchhike for a long time so Andrew and I decided it would be a good idea to do it. We went out to Cle Elum to hike up to Ingalls Lake.

After 7 rides we finally made it to Cle Elum but it was getting late so we camped at the bottom of the mountain and decided we would hike the next morning. We camped next to some super nice river

Andrew brought a gun for protection from the stick indians but we ended up just shooting it at the side of some cliff

A cop drove us up to the base of the mountain and we were on our way...

Once we got to the top we had some victory swigs...

It started getting dark once we got to the top so we tried to find a place to camp. We saw some other hikers and they told us the wind was going to be pretty harsh at night. It was to coldest i've ever been. At least our camp site was nice...

The next day we woke up to some mountain goats coming out of the mist. I thought I was hallucinating...


It was a long hike off of the mountain and once we got to the bottom we camped next to i-90. Once we set-up our tents we went over to the yakima river and lit a huge log on fire. Once again we took more victory swigs. This time the victory swigs didn't stop and neither did the fire...


It was definitley a good trip and I plan on doing it again in the future.
