Pyramid Mountain (bear count = zero)

We arrived in Kodiak yesterday. It is beautiful...green and mountainous!

On Karen and Robin's recommendation, we tackled Pyramid Mountain today...what a beautiful hike!  One area was definitely a "hands-on" scramble, a bit intense (for me) - the rest was just very steep trail. 

We were rewarded with sweeping 360 degree views of Kodiak Island and the surrounding waters from the top. 2500ft elevation gain in just 2 miles.  Luckily they have LOTS of oxygen down here at sea level!

Now we are hungry. Dinnertime?

Pyramid mountain (point in the middle), we approached from the right. 

From the summit.
