Backpacking in the White Clouds part II
We got up on day 2 of our trip to a beautiful sunrise. The sun first hitting the peak. The whole ridge turning orange. After breakfast we decided to go for a bit of a day hike. Jeff had read that there was a way to make a big loop. Part of the loop was trail and part was not. We thought we'd give it a go. We followed the chain of lakes and the stream that connected them up several hundred feet. Stream. Another lake. Th water in these high mountain lakes was so clear that you could see the fish. Jeff thought it was pretty funny that I was trying to take pictures of the fish in the water. Apparently the stock these lakes with fish. How weird is that? Fish. Yet another lake! We hiked up a really steep pass called "Windy Devil Pass" to get up and over the ridge. The view was spectacular. We could see 3 lakes from the top.
