Sex Peak Fire Lookout (really... thats its official name)

In september (I am late getting this on the blog) Jolie and I spent a couple of nights at the Sex Peak (its official name) fire lookout near Thompson Falls, MT. This is the view at night on a star-lit night. We spent a couple of days hiking in the area and enjoying sunrises and sunsets from this great spot.


Sunset with cabin behind us.

One day we hike to Little St. Joe Peak - has a nice picnic area and memorial at the trailhead and climbs 3,000 feet in about 4 miles - near the top is wreckage and another memorial to several firefighters whose plan crashed into the mountain. This is Jolie and Polgara hiking among the colorful huckleberry bushes and beargrass

The top of little st. joe peak - much colder than the previous picture .. and windy!
