Mirror Lake adventure


Details
Let's enjoy Fall's warm colors at Mirror lake on the weekend of Sept 12-14!
I have some warm camping gear (sleeping bag + pad + tent) to share with those who don't have. I've also everything to organize the campfire-side dinner, although I recommend you bring your favorite camping food.
This is an opportunity to do several outdoor activities: this reservoir is a flow-through mtn lake, so there will likely be lots of trout to catch and I'll be bringing a couple fishing rods ready-to-use with with tackle and all.
There are several mountain peaks to hike in the area, most notably Fitzpatrick peak (Easy mode, cat-1 hiking trail, even MTB-able) or Emma Burr (for those who want a bit of climbing challenge).
The plan is such:
by Friday: figure out who's carpooling with whom. Mirror Lake has a proper gravel road leading to it, so any car would be fine to get there. Some people might choose to head to Mirror Lake campground Friday afternoon.
Saturday: the main group gets picked up by those of us driving Sat. morning, and heads out.
Saturday by around 10:00am everyone gathers at the lake. There might be a light hike, but mostly it's an afternoon of fishing, maybe quick swims in the clean (but cold!) lake, and an evening of campfire stories.
Sunday: wake up around 7-8am and do a hike to Fitzpatrick peak. Fitzpatrick peak is just a cat-1 hike, no special climbing skills needed. The views will be gorgeous. Head back to the campground, pack up and head back to town early afternoon.
Reach out 617 584 0074 so I can organize the carpooling.
Let me know:
- Would you like to head out Friday afternoon, or Saturday morning?
- Would you need any camping gear shared with you?
- Would you prefer to drive yourself, or carpool with someone? (I can take up to 3 ppl, with large backpacks, in my SUV)
