Lava Lake Hike - CMP and Solar REU Groups - 23 July 2007

Led by Hugo Schmidt. This 6 mile, round trip, hike had an elevation gain of 1600 feet. It starts at the Gallatin River. Hugo and a few students hiked to Table Mountain. Others just hung out at the lake - to catch their breath!

Resting on the way up!


Cascade Creek crisscrosses the trail a number of times.

Only the ladies were brave enough to test the cold mountain water!
