Kinglet Lake trip
« on: July 05, 2011, 07:48:02 PM »
Well i managed to pull of a 3 day trip to Kinglet Lake. We were the only ones there and even had a snow pack at camp to keep things cold. It was 5-1/2 hrs in and 2-1/2 out.
 Day one we left the truck about noon ,hiked to the lake where we set up camp and did some fishing  then settled around the fire forBison t-bones, baby potatoes and a can of beans , man that was delicious.
Day two we hiked as high as we could to the ridge above camp, it took about 3 hrs i guess, we did some glassing and photos. On the way down i found a geocache, unfortunatley it was not sealed well .I drained the water out and put the log book back inside. Now it was back to camp for some more fishing.
Day 3 we left about 11:00 and hiked down and headed for home.



looking back about 2/3 the way up .



Grinch has tracked down the cutties.



Average size Cutty.



Ham spuds and dehydrated bag of vittles.



Heres looking NW from camp. We made it the ridge in the center of th epic on day 2.

Beautiful pics Springer! Would love to do another back pack trip in to the mountains one summer. Last one I did was to Window Mountain lake in the CNP.
Sure do miss the mountains!
