Goat Lake, Snowgrass Flat & Heart Lake via Lily Basin Trail — Sunday, Aug. 5, 2018

Beautiful hike but the bugs below the tree line were SO THICK and BITING to the point I wanted to cry the whole hike down! We traveled in a clockwise route up to Goat Lake to Snow Grass Flats then Lily Basin and back to the car.  It was a nice (not too hot) summer day, and goat lake was gorgeous with it's deep teal blue color.  I just could have done without all the bugs! No amount of deet deep woods would detour them.  I think I practically ran down the hill once I hit the treeline because I was just so miserable
