Just a quick trip up to the lake and back. Only 6.6 miles round trip but my legs are quite sore this morning. This hike is always more work than I expect it to be. The lake was snow covered except at the edges and I did some postholing on the way up with my foot suddenly plunging several feet into the snow. There was no need for snowshoes.
At lunch time it was raining so I pitched a tarp so I could stay dry while sipping my tea.
6.6 miles with 700 feet elevation gain.
