| Chicago Lakes Basin from Walter Pesman Garden area. Park at the
Walter Pesman parking area and cross-country hike (no marked trail)
approximately 1 mile over the tundra to an overlook at approximately 12,700
feet. This is not an easy hike as you are walking across the tundra at about a
30-degree angle and the ground underfoot felt as if I was walking on baseballs.
If I were to make it again, I would carry a walking staff, notify others of my
travels and take along a hiking companion. |
