Butte Camp to the Loowit

We wanted to get in a hike while the skies were still blue. St. Helen's was a perfect choice. We saw zero people until we were just about back to the trail head on the return and then we only saw a couple and their dog. We enjoyed our time above treeline where is was a little breezy but not too cold. A small group of elk crossed the trail in front of us on the lower wooded section of the trail.
