Having Monday and Tuesday off I decided for an overnight trip up to Robin Lakes. As mentioned in an earlier report the road is good all the way to the Hyas Lake trail head. As long as you're driving a low rider you should be fine. Trail is easy going all the way to the Tuck/Robin Lakes cut-off. Getting up to Tuck and Robin Lakes is a grind for sure. Passed two groups on their way out so I had the entire place to myself. Tuck Lake is completely snow free. There are some snow patches on above Tuck on the way to Robin, but all manageable. Robin Lakes still have some snow/ice in them, but mostly melted out. Set up camp and wandered around the lake and hills above for a couple of hours. When I got back to camp the bugs were relentless. Even with pants, jacket and bug hat on they were driving me nuts. It was only 5:30pm and I didn't feel like sitting around all dressed up as it was too hot and too early to stay in the tent so I decided to pack it up and head back down to Tuck Lake, which was too bad as I had a great spot and the whole place to myself. Found a good spot below Tuck Lake with a great view of Cathedral Rock and Mt Daniel and the bugs were minimal. Got a little rain overnight. Over all a good trip. Had never been up to Robin Lakes before and its a beautiful place.
