A big day to a very pretty spot in Glacier Gorge.  Once past Black Lake a 1/4 mile the route finding becomes fun.

Blue Lake


Gonna go find Green Lake

Heading South

Picked up a faint trail and some cairns

Very neat stuff

The Spearhead.  Green will be to the left, then we will traverse around the Spearhead to the west side to find Frozen.

Another day we can give that a go.  
Little Italy??

Up there somewhere

Success

Green

Looking back

start the traverse around the spearhead

Not bad footing



Found it!  

Very pretty, and all to ourselves



Gotta head back before afternoon storms
