I went on a fun trip the weekend of Aug 21-22. It started a bit differently, as we hiked in to Farley Lk in the dark. My Petzl headlamp was great, and so light. Next day we camped at Toxaway Lk, and caught a few fish. Next day we went over 9000' Snowyside pass, and camped at Alice Lake. Fish were jumping there, but were picky about striking dry flies or lures. This loop, which starts and ends at Petit Lake in the Sawtooths of Idaho, is about an 18 mile round trip, doable as a tough day hike, or a moderate 3 or 4 day hike.

Ran into friends Josh, Bryan, Kristen, and Ginger on Snowyside Pass.
Kerry waded (I call it a swim because he was wet to his neck) out to a submerged ledge to try to get to the fish in deep water at Alice Lake.
