Elk Cove

Nice overnighter loop using the eerie half burnt Elk Cove and Pinnacle Ridge Trails. We connected the two THs using a bushwack instead of walking the road(per recent report by Adam Schnieder). The Timberline Trail was pretty busy this weekend, we were glad we arrived in the afternoon to claim a nice roomy campsite at the Elk Cove/Tline junction.

Flowers still going strong above the Timberline Trail, plus ripe huckleberries and mountain ash berries. Visited the edge of the Coe Glacier.
