Cooler Temperatures
We were very happy to wake up and see clouds and cooler temperatures --- I think that was a first for me, but it's a nice break from the unrelenting sun and heat over the past couple of days. I don't know how people are surviving in the heat wave currently hitting the south west of the US. The day started with a hike up to Bear Hump, a view point over looking the town site and then a drive to Cameron Lake.

On the drive to Cameron Lake we came across some stopped cars --- they had spotted a black bear with two cubs.
