Irish Wilderness, Ozarks, Missouri, February 2-4, 2001 Hiking Trip Photo Gallery

So, you just want to view the photographs from this trip. This page has them all. The trip diary (where you probably just were) has all the same photos, but also includes my impressions of everything I saw and did. The descriptions are lifted from the trip diary so you may find references to information in the diary itself - you'll just have to read the diary in some cases for the full scoop.

	Duct tape is remarkable stuff. There is a short entry trail beore you reach the main loop and it is blazed with duct tape wrapped around trees. 11:44.
	The view from our lunch spot. We picked a spot just off the trail on a small promentory that looked out over the hills and dales of the surrounding wilderness. It was a chilly, but sunny day. 12:51.
	My fellow backpacker, Jim.. 15:32.
	Yours truly standing at the same sign. 15:33.
	You are looking uponthe Bliss Creek Spring. Maybe the creek is not named, but the spring was feeding it quite well. This is one of only two springs, streams, that was running on the trail. Everything else was dry. 15:42.
	We pitched our campsite at the remains of an old home.The chimney area is still standing modestly tall.. 17:00.

	Taken from our campsite you can see the Eleven Point River here. We heard some birds and off in the distance some dogs, but it was really quiet except for the sound of the river flowing by. 09:25.
	Here we are looking down from a ridge upon the Elevent Point River. Hiking that ridge was a real pain. I kept loosing the trail. 11:08.
	Jim in front of the wall of caves. The caves here are not the Whites Creek Cave that is off-limits during the winter. 13:29.
	Here I am standing in front of the same cave wall. 13:31.
