![](thumbs/t-s_skis.jpg) Skis Skis in the snow. I didn't even have to take them off to get the picture :) | ![](thumbs/t-s_pond.jpg) Pond at Cooper's Rock We ski'd down to the pond at Cooper's Rocks. Beautiful scenery, absolute silence. |
![](thumbs/t-s_isaac.jpg) Snack break Isaac and I took a little snack break down at the pond. | ![](thumbs/t-s_sunset.jpg) Sunset When the sun started to go down, we knew it was time to head back, since we both forgot our headlamps. |
![](thumbs/t-s_tearing_down_camp.jpg) Tearing Down Camp After an absolutely freezing cold night (low of 15 degrees F) we tore down camp. | ![](thumbs/t-s_gearing_up.jpg) Gearing Up Preparing for our hike... up the creek and over the ridge, to grandmother's house we go. |
![](thumbs/t-s_big_run_creek1.jpg) Big Run Creek Good ol' Big Run Creek. We must have crossed it about 8 times. Good thing there was thin ice and fast moving water to make things interesting. | ![](thumbs/t-s_big_run_creek2.jpg) Big Run Creek (again) This is where we stopped for our first snack break. Gorp for me, cheese for some of the guys, and a ham sandwich with mayo for Ben. |
![](thumbs/t-s_ridge_road.jpg) Ridge Road After topping out (well, almost, there was still a little elevation gain after this point) we stopped at this road for another quick snack before making the rest of the loop up, over, and back down the mountain. | ![](thumbs/t-s_anthonys.jpg) North Fork of Anthony's Creek This is where we fished Sunday morning. Didn't catch a whole lot, but wow it was beautiful out there. And gorgeous weather! |
![](thumbs/t-s_joe.jpg) Joe Joe grinning because this was the first chance he had to ford a stream with his new (to him) jeep. (1 comments) | ![](thumbs/t-s_joe_jeep.jpg) Joe and his Jeep Joe's ready to go. Got his waders on, got mud up on his jeep, and miles of clear mountain streams. |
![](thumbs/t-s_crawfish.jpg) Crayfish We didn't catch anything at first, except this little [crayfish|crawfish|crawdad|mudcrab]. It wouldn't let go though... that salmon egg must've been mighty tasty. | ![](thumbs/t-s_trout.jpg) Trout After catching a handful of creek chub, I finally bagged my intended prey. I decided to let him go tho, since he wasn't much more than a few bites-worth. |
![](thumbs/t-s_rock_pile.jpg) Rock Pile We found this rock pile by Anthony's Creek. I guess somebody was bored with fishing. |
