Snow Lake

I decided to go back to one of my favorite alpine lakes in the world : Snow Lake. We started late in the day, around 11 am. There were a fair number of people out there but there were still lots of moments when we had the trail to ourselves. You can avoid the crowd by going early in the day or on weekdays. We tried to reach Gem lake, but it was getting late for us so we turned back when we were 25 mins from reaching Gem lake. Even if you dont plan on going all the way to Gem lake, I would recommend hiking down to Snow Lake and walking along it for a bit. That part of the hike is beautiful.

The weather was beautiful and the trail is in excellent condition. There are bugs near the lake itself so make sure to bring bug spray.
