This site contains some photos of the Saturday Hike contributed by several hikers.
The first four photos were contributed by Juergen Haase. The first shows Sam draining grease from a pan into the campfire, in early 2002. It was taken at night with no flash, illuminated only by the fire. picture 1
The second photo, probably taken 8 March 1997, shows Sam near a cliff beside the Middle Fork River where he saw a deer fall many years earlier (perhaps around 1985). The overhanging cliff where the deer stood gave way under it. The deer broke a leg when it landed near the bottom. picture 2
Photo 2a shows hikers sliding a block of ice into the river on 25 Jan 1997. picture 2a
Photo 2b shows hikers keeping warm around a winter fire on 11 Jan 1997. The best part was that there were no mosquitos. picture 2b
