The hike back to camp was about two and a half hours.
From camp back to the trailhead was 11 miles.
We could pack up camp in an hour.
If we started walking at 2, we could be at the trailhead by 10 or 11 at night.
Headlamps for the last stretch.
Not fun, but doable.
We started walking.
The ridge was to our south.
We had to climb back up the 800 feet we'd dropped, then follow the ridge back to the saddle that led to our basin.
That's when I noticed the first thing.
About 15 minutes into the climb, I heard a rock move.
Behind us.
Below us.
Off to the east, maybe a hundred yards back.
I stopped.
Cole stopped.
We both turned and looked.
Nothing.
Just timber and scree and the creek at the bottom.
I said, did you hear that?
