Next, a long-awaited (by Ang) stop at the famous Bunny Hollow. The rabbits
are the mascots of Clark's Cabins, along with the deer that frequently
feed nearby. Tootsie Clark and her late husband, Rudy, went to Friday
Harbor years ago to help relieve San Juan Island of its over-population
of bunnies and they formed their own refuge at Clark's Cabins.
If you'd like to see more pictures of the rabbits, please visit the
"Bunny Page".
As we retrace our route, we take a detour up Burpee Hill Road. I've
often heard of this road being closed for school buses during snowstorms,
and we can see why. It twists and turns as it ascends, and from time
to time, we are surprised by glorious vistas such as this...
and this...
and of course, wonderful Mount Baker.
Mount Shuksan, seen from Baker Lake Road...
and yet another view of Mount Baker.
