Leader's notes

Enjoy a day hike to a nice view point at Gem Lake on a forecasted mostly sunny day, passing two alpine lakes, with anticipated views of peaks in the area including Kaleetan, Roosevelt, Chair, and others.

Please note gain and distance (10 miles round trip 2,200 gain), and have completed comparable day hikes recently (within the last 2-3 weeks).
