Yes indeed, which is very fitting considering the name of the lake!

This shot of "pie rock" was taken in September 2012 (Jen's was taken October 2009 or 2010, I believe)...we should start an album of "pie rock" photos...(hint) it happens to be located on the trail to one of my favorite places...
Re: Slow season of fun
No idea, but I'm wondering if some of you have been to the Park Cafe a little too often.

That is correct! It was such a beautiful fall day.

Re: Slow season of fun
I've never seen "pie rock" -- though, like Jen, I've certainly had my share of pie!toddnick wrote:...we should start an album of "pie rock" photos...(hint) it happens to be located on the trail to one of my favorite places...
-- so I have no idea where it is. Based on Todd's clue maybe it is en route to Cracker Lake?
As for Pitamakan's concern about excessive trips to the Park Cafe...I agree that particular habit can be a problem. But ONLY because standing in line there can take a serious bite out of one's available hiking hours! My solution has been to bring a special tupperware along on my trips so that I can load up a few pieces of pie "to go" and not need to get back in to St. Mary so much.
Mmm. ::sigh:: There ain't NOTHIN' like opening up your pack high up on a pass and digging into a piece of Kathryn's apple pie while you take in the views... (Unfortunately, the banana cream doesn't travel quite so well...)

Yes. Next time you are headed out to Cracker Lake, look for pie rock and take a photo. We will start a pie rock thread next winter. Maybe joybird can get us a shot of her eating pie on pie rock! My shot of Pie Rock (a la mode) was taken in October 2009

Chatter photos on "pie rock" sounds awesome to me...Cracker Lake!!! I'll be back in 2013 (only hike I have done every year other than Grinnell Glacier and Highline)...
