Eagle Lake Hike
This was one of the best hikes I’ve ever done – 2200 feet elevation gain over 4 miles to the 10,000+ foot Eagle Lake:
high elevation meadow, just below the lake
after strenuous climb, a final 900 foot (elevation) almost vertical rock scramble to the top. Exhausting! But well worth the effort.
lovely pool to plunge in!
