Day 1: Siyeh Pass
The morning began at the Apgar Transit Center, with transfers at Avalanche Lake and Logan pass before reaching the trail head at Siyeh Bend.
The specifics: 10.3 miles, 2240 feet elevation gain with a top elevation of 8080 feet. Travel time was approximately 4 and 1/2 hours with a stop for lunch at the pass.
Favorite View...
Lesson learned: Initially, I was frustrated by the overcast skies. This was touted as one of the prettiest hikes in the park, but I couldn't see much. At the top of the pass, visibility was extremely limited.
Today I learned to appreciate the wildflowers because they were some of the only things that could be seen. I am thankful for the experience because I probably wouldn't have paid much attention to them otherwise.
