This picture shows the exact reason why we decided to go slow through the Sierras. When we left our camp the morning of this picture we had the best intentions of hiking 15-18 miles but as soon as we crossed Silver Pass, I saw this lake,Big Chief Lake, and had to stop here. Not only did we have this view and this entire lake to oursleves but there was a pond thay this lake drained into that was teaming with trout. At dusk when the mosquitos hatched there were trout jumping everywhere. Turtle said it reminded her of Whack a Mole. This is another reason I must come back here with my fly rod next time.
