1 entire month...
Been waiting to get a stretch of free time, but mostly just forgot.
That's me, looking snug next to the Lee Metcalf Wilderness Sign! ;-)
ON to the hiking:
Contrary to the namesake of this lake, there is no lava. I searched about 25% of the lake and wasn't able to find any "Lava."
I made fire with my friends and got warmer, sorta. We had drizzling rain for the entire length of this hike. They had fun nonetheless... I have a bit of information for this hike.
- 2.66miles (one-way)
- 1,529 feet (elevation gain, ending in 7,123 feet)
Fun adventure completed! The visiting friend and two local buddies all had fun for this first time going up to Lava Lake.
