Overview, ascent from Hidden Lake
A good overview shot of the trail up from Hidden Lake. The trail starts in the forest at the near shore of Hidden Lake, climbs up through it for about 20 minutes, then emerges onto the lower scree slopes you see here. It then diagonally works its way up towards the bit of open bedrock in the mid-ground, cuts across that bedrock, then crosses a bit of higher scree slope to arrive at where this picture was taken. From where this picture was taken, it is a short and easy scramble up onto a forested bench and the resumption of a flat trail.
