Blue Lakes Pass to TI Lake (Roper): route-finding

Post by oleander »

Wondering if anyone would share any route-finding tricks for Roper Route southbound/eastbound, from where we leave the trail for Blue Lakes Pass, all the way to Thousand Island Lake.

Have heard from several people that this section is the trickiest route-finding of the whole Roper Route.

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.
