Great tough hike with awesome views. Goats curious at lake...but scattered when told to "go away". Headwall just before lake of false prophet sketchy without hand line...be very careful there... perhaps someone can leave a line?

Added photos after realizing I forgot to post them last year, great hike. Fun to think about Carl Putvin on the way up. I can see why he wanted to live and perhaps, ultimately die here as well. I fixed his grave sign and said a prayer before heading up. Also found a little lore about him on the internet, kind of a fun read before going: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/63327860/carl-lorenzo-putvin.
