Lots of beautiful high country views on this hike, 10,500’-12,400’
Plenty of water sources in September so no need to carry a lot.
Abandoned mines, fishing opportunities pretty amazing camp sites if ya hunt for ‘em.

Lots of water on the trail due to the great winter we had. Awesome views of the raging Cascade Creek and Animas River. Some small wildflowers - nice for mid-June. Great views of Engineer and eventually Pigeon and Turret. Can hear the train occasionally. Nice hike.

Easy hike up the access road to the low lake with expansive views of the valley to the West and Potato Hill to the East. Purgatory resort is also viewable.
