From the trailhead, it was three miles to Lower Lena Lake and after a short snack stop, we pushed toward Upper Lena. The next three miles were not nearly as nice; downed trees, muddy creeks, and snow fields. It was quite steep at times, but was overall a good hike. About a mile from Upper Lena we reached the stream; 
it was running quite high, and so we turned back. Back down a ways and stopped for lunch.
The hike overall was good but exhausting. I ache, but it was great exercise and wonderful to get out in the mountains again. 
Twanoh (Stacy's dog) had the right idea after we got back, and so I took her lead.Yesterday I worked at home. Around lunchtime I went with Stacy to visit a friend. Spent some time reading in my maple tree and watched the sun lower through the trees by the day use.
Tomorrow for my day off, I have planned a rousing day of sleeping in and cleaning house.
