23 miles of hiking • 7000' elevation gain • 2 nights

I enjoyed a wonderful weekend with our large group. We camped out on Lake Stuart and, as Kyle mentioned, a few of us hiked up Aasgard Pass to check out the upper basin. We started our climb a bit late in the day, so I didn't get to see all of the upper alpine lakes like I wanted, but maybe next year.

Colchuck Lake is gorgeous, and I'm definitely going to try my best to grab a permit for that zone next trip.

Wow, you guys backpacked into the future?? (See trip dates.) Also, still a ton of snow on Little Annapurna!

Whoops, thanks for catching that. Let's see if I can fix it. . . Although the idea of backpacking into the future sounds intriguing.
