Morning day three and this is Edith lake. It's a pretty stunning lake especially
here in the morning. I'm feeling pretty tired especially
after the the rain last night and two days of
hiking and then this morning's hike up to Edith. A part of me
doesn't want to go to Imogene but I mean I'm here so I better go and
hopefully it's a nice easy climb but I doubt it.
To get over the divide and get over there so
I better get moving before the sun comes out.
Actually today I might enjoy the sun, dry me out a little bit.
So here we are. This is Lake Imogene, but yeah I'm beat. Today was definitely
the toughest day. After you get over Imogene
pass this lake takes your breath away. That
view you're just like holy cow. We're on day three it's like I could
just go to Farley and shorten this trip by a day,
I don't have to go all the way to Imogene, and you're right you don't,
but you should.
Well that's pretty much it for Imogene. I totally dropped the camera today.
Luckily I had this handy-dandy polarizer on it.
Is it worth the trip, yeah it's worth the trip.
There's not many opportunities when you're that close to this
spectacular location. It feels a lot more intimate
than Toxaway, the mountains are actually coming up
straight up out of the lake it feels like.
They're really closing in on you which is
super cool. Tomorrow early in the morning I gotta hike my happy ass up
back up Imogene divide but after that it's gonna be smooth
sailing. Come back down to the loop
and find Farley Lake which I hear is stunning as well.
I mean all these lakes up here are stunning you just can't go wrong
in the Sawtooths.
