Grand Sawtooth Loop | 8/28/20 | 19 miles | Day 3 Waking up at camp around 7, I packed up and prepared breakfast. Another morning of cold soaked oatmeal with protein powder and instant coffee. The morning hike started out fairly clear but I was struggling with getting going. The trail had stayed lower in elevation than I was hoping and I really just wanted to climb up into the mountains instead of skirting around the outer edges. As mid morning came along, I descended down to the lake shore, where I made a light lunch, and decided to go for a swim in the lake. I made my way to one of the docks on the waters edge, and jumped in, swimming around for a few minutes. After drying off on the dock, I began the climb up and eventually started to make my way up into higher elevations. On the climb up, I made a wrong turn and ended up off trail for a while, and had to bushwhack back to the trail before the final ascent to Hell Roaring Lake, where I made camp for the night. • • • • • #Idaho #WhiteClouds #StanleyIdaho #UL #ultralight #ulbackpacking #backpacking #hiking #hikertrash #ultralightbackpacking Shoshone-Bannock Ancestral Land (at Idaho) https://www.instagram.com/p/CID6cP-l1Mf/?igshid=1k22u8zre3xu1 -- source link
