With a slight break in the weather, I decided I would head off to the Alpine Lakes Wilderness and do a bit of backpacking.
With a break in the grey weather, it was the perfect time to pack up the camera and head out to the ocean for the afternoon.
My previous, and first camping trip on San Juan Island, was in the cold harsh winter. Even as such, I had a great time and wanted to go back as soon as I could. So with the weather a little bit warmer, I took some time off from work and reserved another spot at the San Juan County Park.
