Tubal Cain Mine to Buckhorn Lake by Larry Ward

Hike to Buckhorn Pass up the Copper Creek valley. Trail passed thru Rhodies and wildflowers blooming all the way. Only one downed tree along the trail that was easy to navigate. Great cribs and rock walls built for the trail tread where it crosses avalanche chutes - shout out to the trail crews that did this work. Views to the east and west were spectacular. One minor snow fields heading to Buckhorn Pass, but major snow fields remain heading from Buckhorn Pass towards Marmot Pass.
