Maroon Bells 4 Pass Loop Backpacking Day3
日本語は英語の後にあります。
On day3, we climbed up to the Trail Rider Pass. Third pass of four pass loop.
Again, the view from pass was amazing. The unbelievable fact about this 4 pass loop is that gorgeous scenery continues. Because it is always nice view, every moment is so great. No wonder why this loop is really famous. Despite this scenic trails, it never gets crowded like John Muir Trail, nor need hectic permit lottery process. It is really recommended.
Hikers nowadays tend to try to go to only popular places like JMT, of course, those are beautiful, but there are many great places without needing of permits or money.

Then we reached the Snowmass Lake. Sigh. It is very beautiful. We ate snacks and had a nap, because there is plenty of time.

After setting up a tent and having dinner on the meadow, we witnessed many deer, at least ten. They have good looking antlers. It looks like they were also having dinner. They were reflecting orange evening sunlight. It was, peaceful and pretty evening, just Mr.N, me, and deer.
