Evan-Thomas is not a tough hike from an elevation standpoint but it requires some tricky maneuvering through the canyon to get to the Green Monster ice fall.
Commonwealth Creek is a relatively mild hike under normal conditions but on this day the knee-deep snow in the upper meadow put our lead mules to the test.
Chester Lake is a favorite and especially when you add in the extra jaunt up to the Elephant Rocks where we have spread the ashes of Binger, Ceili, Oggie, and Jasper.
