Скачать или смотреть Backpacking High Lonesome Loop King Lake - Devils Thumb Lake - Jasper Lake

This trip we did 3 days - 2 nights in the indian peaks wilderness near Nederland, Colorado. We started at the parking lot for the service road that leads up to Hessie trailhead. We hiked up to betty lake and we were planning on camping at Betty lake but we didn't find a good spot for my marmot 4-person tent so went back down and camped near the king lake sign intersection. We hiked around 7 miles the 1st day.

day 2 we hiked from king lake to devils thumb lake using the high lonesome trail. It is wide, open and exposed views for 4 miles while you are up there. Seeing King Lake from up above is a great view. Make sure you have good weather before going up to that exposed area. We camped near Devils Thumb Lake the 2nd night.

Day 3 we hiked from Devils Thumb Lake back down to the parking lot, it was about 6 miles. We hiked passed Jasper Lake. Jasper Lake is the biggest lake that we passed on this loop and also the prettiest but camping is only allowed in designated camp sites and there aren't that many campsites available.

Thanks for watching, let me know if you have any questions!
