Re: South Lake - Lamarck Cole - Piute Pass Loop 7/21-22/17

The LamarckLakes/Piute Pass trail head is located in the North Lake campground (not South Lake as I originally wrote), and you can drive into the campground (say to drop off packs). However overnight trail head parking is about 1/2 mile short of the trail head next to the pack station. The parking area was about 1/2 full when I arrived on Fri morning, but when I came out Sat evening you could tell it had overflowed. I'm guessing people fishing and day hiking.ttucker9 wrote:Were there any issues driving into the campground at the trailhead?
Did you encounter any snow through Humphreys Basin? I'm doing a North to South semi-loop trip beginning August 9 and am interested in spending some time in Darwin Canyon.
There were patches of snow on the Piute trail along the mouth of Humphreys Basin and the trail was wet a good deal of the way. I'm afraid I didn't get any good pictures though.
