After our Little Baldy Hike, we decide to cool off with a swim, so we hop in the car and head toward Hume Lake.


A few miles down the road we spot a bear browsing in a lush green meadow


It's a mama bear, she's got 3 cubs with her.


We make it to Lake Hume, which is blissfully empty of other humans, and take a swim.


We hear the "scree" of raptors and we see a pair of bald eagles -- one adult, one juvenile -- soaring high overhead. They're so high in the sky it's nearly impossible to get a photo. This shot of the adult is the best we can manage.
