TR: Rae Lakes loop 6/22/2014

I ran the Rae Lakes loop counterclockwise a couple weeks ago. This was my first longer trail run, so I learned a lot about nutrition, hydration and gear. Fortunately, it was a beautiful day with perfect weather. The trail was in great condition, although poles were helpful getting across the snow descending Glen Pass. It took 12 hours, with 8 hours moving and 4 hours taking photographs! Here are a few:
