The classic view of Warbonnet from the camping area. For the same shot in the morning, check out this [[105861678]]! Which photo was taken first? This one was taken in 1984.

A golden cloud above Warbonnet. This place is amazing.

So what are we gonna do today?

Hiking in with Llamas and little ones.

At one point we counted about 50 mesquitos waiting for us on the tent screen.

This is the turn off for the climbers trail as you head into the cirque. Left takes you on the climbers trail direct to the cirque and right takes you past Lonesome Lake.
