Great hike with Mack into Rachel Lakes. Alpine lakes are gorgeous in the fall.
It was a cloudy hiking in and the tree carried so much water it just felt like it was raining the whole time when we got on the top. Rachel Lake is the big lake and it was beautiful, but the small lakes a few miles up were my favorite. The fog made everything seem so mystic and tranquil, unfortunately I am not a good enough photographer to capture it. Matt got a couple of little fishes there.
We got a nice camping spot 50 feet away from the lake.
