Devil's Thumb Lake Hike 06/29/2009
This hike was 11.8 miles with a vertical rise of 2123 feet.  The snow
at the higher elevations meant traversing 6 foot deep snowfields.
The 6 miles of trail to the lake was
scenic the entire way.
The valley at the half way point of
3 miles.
The scenic trail at the higher
elevations had deep snow.
