Franklin Lakes May 23, 2009

Well this was the 1st ever trip that I had to turn around with out getting to the destination. Within a mile of the lakes the trail was overcome with snow, and with time in mind it would have taken to long plowing a path. So now I'll have to make a return trip later this summer to complete this hike, but here are some pictures anyways.

1.7 miles left to Franklin lakes.

Canyon cut into the mountian from the snow melt at farwell gap.

More of the canyon, but looking toward the start of the hike.
