It didn't take long for this hike to fill and with good reason.  Canyon Creek Meadows Trail has so much to offer, beautiful wild flowers, lush green meadows a meandering creek, a cirque lake with Three finger Jack looming in the background.  What more can you ask for?
We were all very fortunate on our hike with comfortable temps, clear skies (Smoke Free) and best of all, relatively free of mosquitos!  The only down side of our outing was no signs of Mountain Goats, one hiker had informed us they were up on the higher plateau. Oh well, can't have everything..
I want to thank everyone for joining me on this hike.  A very fun day!
