We hiked here years ago through fog and mist which caused icicles to hang from our eyebrows and lashes. Eric nearly made it to Chasm Lake, but the fog was so thick, he couldn't see it.
A much lovelier day was in store for us - the sun was shining, the sky was blue. The snow appeared on the trail well below the tree-line. It was really fun to walk on snow initially! Then it got a little old.
That's a cold drink of water!

The freshest-smelling pit toilet in all the land.
Last time we were here, this part of the trail wasn't this bad, though it was not good, and we risked going across. These folks tested the trail and decided it was too risky. Chasm Lake eludes us again!
