So here we are, Alice Lake.
I've seen pictures of this place but I've never been here. This is
considered one of the most beautiful if not the most beautiful mountain lake in the Sawtooths
and I can definitely see why.
Its just this beautiful blue water thats just sparkling right now
It's so crazy.
And this big peak this is El Capitan.
Not to be confused with what Alex Honnold climbed in Yosemite
but this is the Sawtooths El Capitan and its like 9900 feet,
but it towers over these little switchbacks over here.
This jagged ridgeline.
Kraig Adams came through the Sawtooths recently and I was chatting with him
trying to convince him to take a chair.
It's worth it man it's worth that extra 2 pounds.
I couldn't convince him he was just like, "I value things differently than you."
You know what Kraig
I definitely value this chair right now.
And I'm starting to realize that in the Sawtooths every lake is beautiful
and every lake is stunning in its own way.
You can't just see one you gotta see a few of them.
Couldn't have asked for a better day.
Gorgeous 80 degrees.
Nice light breeze.
Not a cloud in the sky, just a beautiful day.
Tomorrow we're going to be hitting Snowy Side Pass
and the biggest lake in the Sawtooths, Toxaway Lake.
We'll have some stunning views
right out of the gate going up Snowy Side Pass
I'll be able to see these lakes, I'll get a better view from up top.
It'll be really awesome during sunrise so
thanks for watching, and I'll see you next time.
