Iceless Iceberg Lake

BetterPhoto.com All Time Best Photo Contest Finalist

BetterPhoto.com Photo Contest SECOND PLACE Winner

Iceless Iceberg Lake
Only got a few blisters on this short overnight trip. This was more like a pit stop on the way back home from visting my family in Sparks, Nevada. Had the girlfriend drop me off at the Mammoth Mountain resort and took the bus to the trailhead.

I decided to leave the trail from Ediza Lake and do a ltttle bit of cross country. I ended up finding a nice little tarn under the sierra crest but had to scale down the cliffs on the right to get to where I was going to be meeting my ride home the following day. Good thing I found them otherwise I'd be hitch hiking.
