Iceberg Lakes Basin | James Peak Wilderness
July 2020
Eager to explore more of the James Peak Wilderness, my goal this time was to traverse the Continental Divide and summit James Peak. Beginning my adventure at East Portal, I gradually made my way towards the idyllic Forest Lakes. Upon reaching the shores of Forest Lakes, known for their frequent Moose sightings, I veered off the trail, guided by the allure of exploration towards the lofty heights of the Continental Divide. Along the High Lonesome Trail, shrouded by clouds, I paused often to admire the serene lakes nestled below, separated by steep mountain cliffs.
