Steph_Abegg member Registered: 02/12/07 Posts: 158 TRs: 30 Photos: 161 Loc: Seattle, WA	This last weekend (Feb 27-28), my friend Dave and I slogged up into the Alpine Lakes Wilderness to Tank Lakes. On the snowshoe in, an rather sizable avalanche occurred at the head of Necklace Valley. I got a photo of the fresh scar: Link to larger image. We continued on to camp at Tank Lakes, where we had a spectacular sunrise the next day. I've posted my full trip report and many photos on my website: http://sites.google.com/site/stephabegg/home/tripreports/washington/northcascades/tanklakeswinter Edited by Steph_Abegg (03/01/10 08:16 AM)

Jealous, my computer and photography skills are lacknig. I use Photoshop CS2, and "layer styles" option helps make the borders and shadows that add a more professional feel. It just takes playing around with, but its easy to do. Only problem is the price tag on Photoshop. -Steph
