    Pictures from ill-fated trip

    These are some pictures of whinny from our recent backpacking trip that went awry (seehttp://forum.dog.com/asp/tm.asp?m=124928 in case you missed the story!)
    These were taken before we found out we'd be walking an extra 15 miles that day:

    The area we were hiking through had suffered a massive forest fire in 2000, so it is all new growth taking over old burned trees. very pretty, and spooky.

    we had a large ice storm here in 2003...a lot of the trees in our forests look the same way....all broken and beaten down

    Completely off topic-sorry!- but I had to interject and say that I lived in the Louisville area in 2003 and remember the ice storm! I had never seen anything like that before.
     
    Whinny looks like she's having a good time. Of course that was before she had to walk 17 miles. [:)]

    Beautifully eerie pics!  I went and read your tale of adventure and woe...quite a story!  So glad you had SUCH a fortuitous meeting with your neighbor and it came to a happy ending.  You all had to be SO relieved.

    yes, the relief was indescribeable - dreamlike actually!
