Last Saturday as I loaded my bike in the car for a day trip to the Stevens Pass Bike Park, I decided to run back inside and pack an overnight pack just in case I got inspired to spend the night outside. As the fog broke on our day of biking, I was duly inspired and decided to drive across Blewett Pass and spend the night at Ingalls Pass, a quick but potent backpacking option. I camped on a rock ledge at Ingalls Pass, waking in the middle of the night to shoot some full moon shots. I woke again at 4:30 to make my way to the shores of Ingalls Lake where I shot long exposures in the pre dawn hours. The rest of the day was spent relaxing by the lake and in a leisurely hike back to the car. Only 24 hours of wilderness time, but immensely refreshing nonetheless. The conditions could not have been better for backpacking; and on that note, I'm off to pack my gear for another outing, this time in the North Cascades. Happy weekend!

As with all of my work, prints are available. Email info@scottrinck.com for more information.
