Miles Hiked: 14.3<\/p>\n

Start Location: Onion Valley<\/p>\n

End Location: Dollar Lake Mile 796<\/p>\n

End Location GPS: 36.83457, -118.40768<\/p>\n

Today was tough. Glen Pass scared us and kicked out butt. The north facing bowl when you get over the top is just covered in snow. I don\u2019t even want to use the word sketchy because it is kind of beyond that- more in the territory of perilous I would say (I am probably exhagerating). I\u2019m actually glad we did it in the afternoon when the snow was soft. A slip could have sent you barreling down the bowl face out of control and into the rocks below.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It\u2019s hard to be angry at the mountains because everything here is so beautiful. After we decended safely we saw several deer, a doe and two bucks, grazing in a grassy meadow overlooking a lake that had a large snow capped mountain behind it. It seriously is like we are in a Disney Movie.<\/p>\n

We didn\u2019t get our mileage in because Glen Pass took forever to get through. I really hope the other passes are not as difficult. It\u2019s so slow walking through snow and then flooded trail.\u00a0<\/p>\n
