    We started our hike in Moraine Lake and went up to Sentinel Pass. After that we feel good enough to keep going to Eiffel Lake. Eiffel Lake hike is worth for the views you have during it rather than for the lake itself.

    what a difference between winter and autumn in this area. The best jerkey you get at the trading post, but you can bet it will not last for much... its too tasty. Just as the hill country around here.
