Echo Lake to Summit Lake | Mount Blue Sky Wilderness
October 2019
Setting out on this late autumn day hike, Echo Lake served as both the starting and ending point of my adventure. Following the Chicago Lakes Trail for the initial miles, I was greeted by beautiful forests and enticing views of the distant peaks. After passing Chicago lakes and making a steep ascent, arriving at Summit Lake, I found myself at a crossroads of sorts. Opting for an off-trail excursion, I embarked on a relatively easy hike up and over the summits of Mount Warren and Rogers Peak.
