Okay, the last one was a little terrifying at moments, but we made the best of a quick overnight backpacking trip to enjoy the blooming wildflowers, a frigid icy lake dip, and an unexpected sunset show.

However, it wasn’t a walk in the park. With a 5 mile hike in, plus over 3,000 feet of elevation gain, this hike was hard, but oh so worth it!

We test out some lightweight Klymit camping gear, our new Peak Design camera clip, and get some fun photos from this memorable trip.
