I hiked up on this high tundra while stationed as a weather observer in the Air Force
between 1953-54. We left a rock cairn up in there and waded in one of the cold glacial
lakes. I also rowed and fished on Lake Ferguson and stood next to Russell glacier.
These are great pictures and bring back memories. I am still a weather observer in the
West. Features like Sugarloaf Mtn can be seen to the right of the pale water of Sond-
restrom Fjord at left. Black Ridge is just out of sight at left edge of photo.
