IMG_7101.JPG2 viewsPhoto (closer) documenting possible route descending from Scree Lake about midway between outlet and top of ridge; 5:24 pm. I increased my pace in order to reach Four Lakes Basin, and unfortunately, did not stop to take any more photos the rest of the day.

IMG_7122.JPG2 viewsOnce again, the 16 mm wide angle lens is put to good use. I arrived last night in the last light of day, and, after the difficult climb up to the basin, managed to get the tent up, and hang the food as it became dark. Being here in the early morning light made it worthwhile.
