Northern Loop Trail, Part 3 of 6
Here is Ellen in our "almost level" tent hoping our platform wouldn't slide down the mountain during the night. We will always remember XNOR!
Having breakfast at XNOR.
The White River Valley (West Fork). We need to go down, cross the river, and climb back up the other side of the valley to get to Grand Park.
Grand Park. This is a huge (3/4 mile by 2 mile) nearly level, almost treeless, flat, beautiful old lava flow. Being so big and flat it seems out of place in a park where everything else is steep rugged terrain.
Our camp at Berkeley Park.
