There were lots of stream crossings along the trail to Burnt Lake.
We love trees!
Fearless hikers ready for anything.
Enjoying the babbling brook. What did it say....?
Students found a good resting log on the edge of Burnt Lake
Ouch! Those crabs can really grab you.

The faculty invited all students in a math or computer science class to join them for the 9th Annual Hike on the flanks of Mt. Hood followed by a Barbeque and board games at a professor’s cabin. Last September, 25 students had a great time hiking, jumping in the lake and generally enjoying the great Fall weather in the wilderness.
