The summer trail cuts across a scary terrain, so I was hoping I could find a safe way to get to the summit if I could, but I settled at a high point.

I couldn't go to the other end of Cameron Lake because I forgot to bring my passport.

One thing I remember for sure is, it was cloudy while I was at high point, but it was sunny when I was at low elevation both on way up and down. But I managed to take this photo.
