Noel asked for a couple nights out after Thanksgiving people day. I figured something flatish would be good; We both forgot this trail requires brush busting. Noel took most of the heftier stuff in her pack.
All the "mining" stuff is still out there. Moved a little but most likely not used since my last trip.
It took 4hrs in to camp and 3.5 out. Saturday we hiked down to the lake. I think nipple-deep is the correct term used to designate where the creek stops and the lake starts.
We hiked to the climber's trash camp but there was no water and it wasn't great, so we backtracked 5min to something we liked better. I also marked on the gps route another good camp not as far in.
There was some water under the Fish Creek bridge as we passed it. There was no water for a long time in on the hike.
Wasn't nearly as cold as I thought. My hike at the end of December another year had more yellow leaf color.
Not another soul seen in the canyon after the parking lot.
