Rachel Lake with Rampart Ridge
Beautiful day, blue sky, very warm! So warm, that all the snow was melting and creating torrents of water rushing down the trails.

I was aware of this trail's reputation for being wet, but this was amazing. Half of the time was spent wading up a streambed where there should've been a trail. Amazing amounts of water! Take a floatation device.

Light snow at the lake, just enough to make things pretty. Not many folks on the trail.
