Mark did this hike alone and took me back in August of 2004. This 10 mile route from the Chinook Pass trailhead led us to SHEEP LAKE - My love of the water won the day for a wonderful refreshing swim in this cool but very much enjoyed lake. The views were excellent and wildflowers still fairly profuse. An excllent hike. Took another short dip on the way back out. One of my favorite hikes to date.
