Last Morning at Nelson Lake

After another night well below freezing, we woke up and had a nice, warm campfire before packing up.  It was time to leave Nelson Lake.

Steam rising on the lake.

After the sun came up and melted off the frost, we said our goodbyes to Nelson Lake and headed down the trail.

One last look at Nelson Lake.

Back at the wilderness boundary on our way out to the car.  It was a great few days of backpacking, hiking, and camping with my parents just like we used to do when I was young.

Enjoying some warm drinks around the campfire as the cold night air comes in.
