Crow Creek Trail (Girdwood, Alaska)

Waterfalls near Girdwood

Crow Pass Trail Waterfalls

We attempted what AllTrails calls the “Crow Pass, Crystal Lake and Barnes Mountain Trail”. The weather wasn’t great, but the views were still spectacular. We didn’t make it to Crystal Lake for a couple of reasons. One was that the clouds were low enough that we wouldn’t have been able to see the lake or any of the views from up there. The other is that you had to fjord a couple of minor waterfalls to continue on the trail, and we didn’t have waterproof shoes or poles. I would love to do this one again someday in a more prepared state.

We didn’t see any bears, but we did see some mountain goats and arctic ground squirrels.

The elevation gain at the outset and near these waterfalls was killer.

High Sierra does something I haven’t seen regularly done at music festivals, and that is to have pre-planned artist collaborations around a particular theme. Nearly all of these events take place in the High Sierra Music Hall (AKA: Serpilio Hall on the grounds of the Plumas Sierra County Fair). Given that this year’s festival was hot every day (90s in the shade by noon), and this venue had air conditioning (that didn’t work great but was still enough to make it cooler indoors than out), it became the go-to place before the sun finally went down each day.

One such event was the band Eggy doing some Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young tunes (sometimes with guest artists).

The setlist was something like this:
Find the Cost of Freedom
Love the One You’re With
Southern Cross
Carry On
Helplessly Hoping
Suite: Judy Blue Eyes (with Dan Lebo and Holly Bowling)
