Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho

Mountain lake and hiking trail

Alice Lake in the Sawtooths can be yours for a short 6 mile hike and about 2K elevation change from Pettit Lake. This is morning at Alice Lake and shows the trail along the perimeter of the lake. Surprising even for July to see a little snow in the mountains in the regions that do not see sunlight. Today, I hear, it is very smoky up there. But when I was up there in July, as you can see, the air was crystal clear.
